Given to me for a honest review. The Ghost of Winthrop: Prudence's aunt hides her will before her death. A letter states whoever finds it will inherit her estate. A treasure hunt in the truest sense of the word. Death in the Dunes: A distraught woman wants help from her husband. Things are not always what they seem Charles decides to kill his wife. He wants to make it look like an accident. He soon finds out accidents - My Description - This is a collection of short stories.
He soon finds out accidents are sometimes hard to come by. When Polly steals her sister's boyfriend, things take a turn for the worst. Keep your hands off other people's property A dead woman is found partly submerged in water. Perhaps it wasn't such a perfect day after all Felicity is happily married to Geoff. She soon finds Geoff's hiding places. She thinks it's kinda cute, but what she finds are clues to his past.
Are things really better hidden? The Proof is Always in the Pudding: Superstitions arise when there are an uneven number coming for Christmas dinner. Will history repeat itself? Reality TV becomes real for Faith Sibley when she's invited to participate in a cooking competition. Hide the knives, because death has come to dinner.
Christmas came early for Mary when she finds a baby boy in her barn. A mysterious Christmas eve surprise. They were all fun. Some were just okay. My favorite story was Would-be Widower. It was predictable but I really liked the way it was executed no pun intended, LOL. One thing I didn't like about this book: There wasn't much background on certain stories, things were left out. It wasn't really explained well. Filling but not thrilling. Jun 12, Jonathan rated it it was amazing Shelves: Loved, loved, loved this!
Wonderful, solid short stories written by the author of the Faith Fairchild novels. Feb 19, Christine rated it liked it. This was a book of short fictions. Several of the stories were worth the read but some weren't long enough even be considered a story. I found with most of the stories there was a lot of description but not much content. My major pet peeve was how abruptly the stories ended. Jun 29, Lesa rated it liked it Shelves: Page's collection includes Faith in many of the short stories.
And, an anthology can be picked up any time. This one came out a year ago, however it fit my mood when I went looking for the perfect book. You really just need to enjoy mystery stories to appreciate Small Plates. Most of Page's stories are set in New England, everywhere from Maine to resort areas to Boston and the surrounding communiti It doesn't matter if you read Katherine Hall Page's mysteries about caterer Faith Fairchild or not. Most of Page's stories are set in New England, everywhere from Maine to resort areas to Boston and the surrounding communities.
A couple feature the old families, the Winthrops and the Cabots. There are even a couple Christmas mysteries for those of us who love them. I had two favorite stories. When Faith's mother-in-law says she needs a man, it kicks off the story of the Fairchild Christmas Dinner Curse, a story going back to the late eighteen hundreds. It's a story of class and deceit and love. And, it's a story of murder. Anyone who watches food television shows will recognize a reality TV show in which chefs get eliminated if they don't prepare the most appealing appetizer, entree and dessert.
Faith is not happy to be participating in the show for a local charity, but her best friend asked her. And, she really regrets her agreement when she meets her competition, three chefs who dislike Faith. Any one of them would like to eliminate her for good. There are nine mysteries and a couple recipes in the book. Page's collection is an appealing taste of New England crime, with the inclusion of a familiar character for comfort.
Although not all the entries include Faith Fairchild, the ones that do may just whet your appetite for longer stories, Katherine Hall Page's books that feature the caterer. Small Plates is the perfect appetizer, a sample of the storytelling skills of an author who has honed her skills over the course of twenty-two mysteries.
Welcome to Katherine Hall Page's world, enchanting settings disturbed only by the intrusion of a killer or two. Jun 20, Emily rated it liked it Shelves: A collection of murder mystery short stories, most featuring Faith Fairchild from Page's mystery novels.
Didn't really care for the character of Faith - she would down right annoy me in a whole novel, but I quite liked "The Would-be Widower" no Faith, fun dark humor at the end and "The Two Mary's". I'd give those a four, evening out the collection to a three.
Small Plates: Short Fiction by Katherine Hall Page (Paperback, 2015)
Haven't read any short stories in a while - it was fun to indulge in some 'Small Plates. Oct 31, Cheryl rated it really liked it. Katherine Hall Page's Faith Fairchild is one of my favorite series. I am not too fond of short stores, since it never seems to give a total finish to the store like a book does. Most of these stories were Faith Fairchild stores and enjoyable. I receive a monthly subscription box and this book came in it. I have heard about this author from my mother many years ago. It was different, interesting for the most part but just not my cup of tea.

Reward Yourself
As I often notice from some short story collections I read, I loved many of them but liked others a little less. All in all, I found Page's writing wonderful and suspenseful.
