Death on the Danube by Jennifer S. Alderson
Lana lost her job, got divorced, and is having trouble paying her rent. Then she has a chance to lead a tour group in Budapest. It should have been he answer to her problems but then her fellow tour guide winds up dead and her problems just seem to multiply.
I had some issues with this book in the beginning. (It might just be me but it bothered me that someone was blowing butterfly kisses.) There is a lot of explaining to get though. There isn't even a dead body until you are half way though the book. But this is the first book in the series and Alderson was setting up all her characters and the setting. So I expect less of that in following books. I liked the setting and how you heard about Budapest along with the mystery. And as we went along I got more into the story. It did what a mystery should do, make me wonder who did it. It had a few bumps for me but there was enough interest here that I will read the next one in the series. But there is no rush.
