Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Reunited and It Feels So Deadly
Murder at the reunion
This latest Aurora Teagarden mystery has our sleuthing librarian heading for her high school reunion and thinking of little more than the music she listened to back in the day. She's also sporting a new fiance in Niall Matter as she got engaged in the last film.
The last thing Roe and the others expect is murder, but one happens and it's one of her classmates who had a reputation for being a go getter and a promoter back in the day. Now he's gone gotten himself stabbed to death and the murder weapon is missing.
This one is painful for our librarian sleuth as she has trouble fathoming who among her friends could be a killer.
Marilu Henner is back as Aurora's mom and Dylan Sloane is back as cousin Phillip. For the first time since his introduction in the series Sloane is not in any trouble. So far he unwittingly aided in a heist, was a murder suspect when caught with weapon in hand, and has been kidnapped.
Fans of the series should enjoy this.
Pick a suspect, any suspect, and when you find out who finally gets arrested your response may just be "who cares"
This is one of those cookie cutter murder mysteries that runs for the standard ninety (90) minutes and presents an endless stream of potential murder suspects to the point where I just didn't care anymore who they arrested. Mrs. Shullivan and I truly enjoy actress Candace Cameron Bure's innocence and perky personality in almost all of the earlier Aurora Teagarden mysteries, but when Aurora climbs out a second storey window, over a railing, and down a trellise to prove a point, now I have seen everything.
Just because this made for TV mystery had a dozen or so suspects, does not make it a mystery, nor does the hokey way that Aurora solve this murder, with the eventual murderer declaring their crime.
I write some of my IMDB reviews just to remind myself not to get fooled a second time and watch it again a few years later after time has passed and memories have waned. This is one of those forgettable made for TV mysteries that can be forgotten and "No, Aurora it does not feel so deadly"
I give it a mediocre rated 5 out of 10 IMDB review.
