Is this an adaptation of one of the Aurora Teagarden crime novels written by Charlaine Harris, or is it an original script? It certainly feels like it's an adaptation, because so much stuff is crammed into this film: as if the scriptwriter produced a very faithful transcription of a book containing an inordinate amount of busyness. So much is going on that the story isn't allowed to breathe. If the scriptwriter had faith in "less being more", this pretty standard story might have yielded a passable film; as it is, this is really not worth watching.
