Dollycas's Thoughts
The guys are away on a fishing trip when Molly gets a visitor, a young woman claiming to be Bob's granddaughter. When he and his wife split up she took their daughter and refused Bob any time he wanted to see her. He thinks maybe spending time with his granddaughter, Darla, could be his second chance. Then a dead man is found in Molly's backyard and he may be connected to Darla. She may be the police's prime suspect. This gets the Ashton Corners Mystery Readers and Cheese Straws Society in high gear. They need to find out more about Darla and the life she left behind to find Bob and if she really did know the man who was killed. It time to get to the bottom of her story.
I must be a doubting person because I would have questioned Darla's story from the moment she arrived. Molly was far more welcoming and Bob much more accepting than I would have been. But then my love for this group of characters and my love of the chase to catch a killer took over and I was following the clues and where they led. Lizzie always gives me a few palpitations as she noses her way into places where others fear to tread.
The character that was my favorite this was Sally Jo. All she wants to do is plan her wedding but her mother has her own ideas. I can relate, been there, done that.
As always Erika gives us a wonderful mystery with plenty of diversions to throw us and the Society off the trail. The subplots are fun and interesting. I love the way the characters and their relationships continue to evolve and grow not only with each book but throughout each story.
Pluses for us book lovers
Each chapter starts with a quote from another author's book. Several of which I have read and reviewed.
There are Reading Lists for each character at the end of the story. They all like a bit different type of stories.
We are a left with a "Oh My" moment that will have fans of the series wanting the next book as soon as possible.
