Review:
It’ll have you turning pages into the wee hours of the night!
Retired teacher turned sleuth, Lillian Prestridge, is on the road again, tracking down her friend’s missing aunt. But Lillian isn’t your usual retired teacher. She’s at the wheel of a big motorhome, with her faithful, standard poodle, Eli, beside her and her gun tucked away in her glove compartment. Lillian believes in coming prepared. She’s also smart and alert to any clues that might help her complete her mission. She has a stubborn streak, integrity, faith in a higher power and a great sense of justice. She’s a person you could depend on to have your back if you were in trouble.
This fourth book in the series is a perfect next installment or a wonderful stand-alone. Either way, it’s an intriguing escapade that you’ll want to read while drinking hot cocoa and sitting tucked away in your nice, warm bed. But don’t expect to fall asleep with this cozy mystery. It’ll have you turning pages into the wee hours of the night. It’s very well-written, with lots of twists and turns. With a very clever, courageous heroine and just the right amount of danger to satisfy any reader, “Scrabbled Secrets” is highly recommended!
