One of MacLeod's witty cozy series feturing Sarah Kelling and Max Bittersohn; pleasant, quick read. Not as good as the Peter Shandy series, but nice nevertheless.

I haven't read anything by this author before but I will be looking for more of her books. Very enjoyable. It was subtly funny with many quirky characters and a good mystery. It has a style similar to the Grace and Favor mysteries but it's set in the 1980s.

I love Charlotte MacLeod and the characters she has created with Sarah and Max. They are down to earth, real people. In this one Cousin Theonia reads the tea leaves and finds.....something bad is on the way! Who is trying to sabotage the Recycling Center? What will happen at the Charity Ball? Who is trying to blacken the Kelling name??? Will Sarah and Max find answers to all the questions? Of course they do!!

Number 7 in the Sarah and Max Bittersohn Mysteries. Charlotte MacLoed is a multiple award-winning author of over fourty acclaimed novels, many featuring one or the other of her two maajor sleuths. I perfer Sarah and Max and the Kelling Clan, as they are a most unusual and most interesting family... ceratinly not the typical neighbors next door type... a really zanny group, who will entertain you from start to finish! "Macloud has been called America's Agatha Christi."
An excellent reread. The crazy Kellings are busy driving Max and Sarah crazy, and there is murder and suspense enough to stand the test of time.
