Hildy Schneider is a social worker at Sorenson General Hospital in Wisconsin. She also runs Grief Support meetings in her spare time. A new member of the group, Sharon Cochran, is grief stricken over her son's suicide. She tells the group that she doesn't believe her son took his own life. Sharon thinks he was murdered. As Hildy listens to Sharon's story, she decides to investigate Toby Cochran's death. With the help of Detective Bob Richmond, Hildy starts to believe that Sharon is right...Toby did not take his own life.
This is the first book in the Helping Hands series. It is a solid mystery with likeable characters. My favorite character was Hildy's eleven-year-old neighbor P.J. who walks Hildy's dog Roscoe. She is a smart kid who has no filter. I loved some of the things she said.
There were several suspects in this story. I wasn't sure who killed Toby or even why he was killed. As Hildy dug into Toby's life, she uncovered some surprises. My rating: 4 Stars.
