I'm reading this novella from the Country Club Murder series. It's really good.
Book Beginnings
My daughter finds bodies. It's a deplorable habit - almost worse than spitting tobacco or picking one's nose in public (or at all).
From 56% on my e-reader.
Some people just couldn't take constructive criticism.
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Frances Walford's daughter, Ellison Russell, has developed the truly deplorable habit of finding bodies. And Frances can't help but scold her about it.
But when Ellison goes to Europe, Frances finds a corpse of her own.
Can she help catch a killer and keep her involvement a secret?
This is a short novella told from Frances's point of view. Chronologically it falls between The Deep End and Guaranteed to Bleed.
What do you think? What are you sharing today?
This is one of the series I haven't yet read, but it's definitely going on my list.
ReplyDeleteThe premise seems kind of ironic, and I like the character already. I hope you enjoy this one. Have a great weekend!
