I loved this book. First because they were a mini trip down memory lane, but Kathleen describes the settings so well you wont have had to visit the historic site to feel like you are right there in the farmhouses, the barns, or even Chloes trailer office. Chloe also travels around the area and the authors words take us right along with her.
I also enjoyed that Chloe really doesnt want to being the middle of any of the investigations, she would rather be doing her job as Curator of Collections, keep her boss off her back and spending time with her new friends.
The best part though are the mysteries. They are so well plotted and intelligently written, with plenty of spins and spills, twists and turns. The characters take some turns and spills themselves.
This story also educate us about the cultures of old Wisconsin in a subtle way. The back stories are as rich as the mysteries that unfold in each book. The way historical and modern times mesh together in these stories is truly delightful. You can feel Kathleens passion for Old World Wisconsin in her words. She understands the history and the extra research she does for ideas is going to give her a wide range of things to shine a light on in future stories.
