Joe is not what you consider your average journalist. He gets to the true story no matter who he has to interview. Some characters like him and give him the answers he is looking for. Others lie to his face, and there are many people who are lying about where there were and who they were with the night of the party. Joe gets help from some of the students who were in Valerie's class. Little by little the puzzle is coming together, but will Joe find out who the real killer is and why Valerie was the victim?

MURDER IN GEORGETOWN is the first book that I have read of Margaret Truman. It is also, the seventh book in the Capital Crimes series (a twenty-nine books series!). Ms. Truman's writing is great, and MURDER IN GEORGETOWN kept me guessing the whole time. I also enjoyed the fact that I didn't have to read any of the other books in this series since all the characters are different in each book.

Margaret Truman gives an inside look at what possibly goes on in government offices. True? Maybe but there is also probably a little extra added to it. If you like a cozy mystery MURDER IN GEORGETOWN is the book for you. I highly recommend it.
