My Review
We’re back is Estes Park and things are really hopping. A New Age Conference is beginning and there’s lots of new faces, some of them famous. When one of the headliners is found dangling at the end of a rope, wrapped in crystals, Fred and Watson are once again on the case. Fred is hard pressed to solve this quickly as some people she cares deeply about are on the suspect list. And some of them don’t want her digging too deep.
This was a bit of a change for Estes Park. Usually Fred is the only one to ruffle the feathers of it’s inhabitants. But when a group gets them all riled up, they’re divided and fingers are pointed at neighbors and friends. This made the mystery even harder to figure out.
After having read the previous six books in this series, I’ve come to know the characters that roam these pages. I’ve learned there secrets. Walked the streets and visited their shops when Fred and Watson went sniffing for clues. And enjoyed seeing how they react to different situations. I wonder how it would feel to visit Estes Park. I imagine I’d be putting faces to characters from these pages. And I know I’d be on the lookout for Fred and Watson.
Quarrelsome Quartz was another delightful mystery. Every time I start the next book in this series I have my fingers crossed it will be as fun as the last one was. I’m happy to say it was and I’m now waiting anxiously to get my hands on the next book.

Synopsis
A New Age conference comes to Estes Park, Colorado, bringing a cacophony of tie-dye, crystals, and murder…
As summer draws to a close, the Spirit, Health, and Heart Conference arrives, just in time for Winifred’s sisters to open their store next to the Cozy Corgi Bookshop. To Fred’s surprise, Chakras turns out to be a beautiful addition to the delightful mountain town. The shop even has a room so pleasing in its crystal tranquility that Fred’s corgi, Watson, approves—and hardly anything impresses him.
But not everyone is charmed by the crystals, tarot readings, and messages of personal enlightenment. When a famous spiritualist is found dead, Chakras and the entire town is plunged into a conflict that touches the lives of those closest to Fred.
Although she is hesitant to become involved, it is simply not in the cards for Fred to sit out the investigation. As she and Watson embark on a journey that forces them to take a look into the darker shadows of Estes Park, Fred soon finds herself digging into the secrets of those she loves…

Meet the Author
Reading the Cozy Corgi series is pretty much all you need to know about Mildred. In real life, she’s obsessed with everything she writes about: Corgis, Books, Cozy Mountain Towns, and Baked Goods. She’s not obsessed with murder, however. At least not at her own hands (nor paid for… no contract killing here). But since childhood, starting with Nancy Drew, trying to figure out who-dun-it has played a formative role in her personality. Having Fred and Watson stroll into her mind was a touch of kismet.
