Easter Bunny Murder by Leslie Meier was an OK mystery. I enjoyed it well enough. However, it's premise as set-up in the first chapter wasn't carried through. It would have been nice if the Easter theme could have been maintained. As it was, the story meandered its way to the heat of summer. As for the murder victim, that was introduced in the first chapter but the story digressed well away from the victim. It became more of a sub-plot. We, the reader, weren't even informed that the culprit existed as a person until the funeral of the victim. In a murder mystery I want my culprit to have a cameo appearance right near the beginning so that I know they exist in the story's universe. I want my murder mystery to focus on the solution to the murder. And I like a theme to be evident from beginning, to middle, to end. I wanted the Easter Bunny Murder to be consistent.
