De: Tonya Kappes

Jackets Jack-O-Lantern and Justice:

The bursts of orange, yellow, green, and red pop on the falling leaves, creating a colorful path along the trails for all guests at Happy Trails Campground is a real life picture that could never be captured by a camera. It's a dead body that chills everyone to the bone! When Hanks asks Mae and the Laundry Club Ladies to snoop, they are the first to put on a costume to bring this haunting tale to an end.

Santa Sunrises and Suspicions:

Take Neva Hudson for instance, bless her heart, she's the town gossip, not to mention someone who likes to toot her own horn. Two toots too many 'cause bless her heart, someone has strangled Neva and left her for dead in of all places . . . the church's Christmas play. There's no shortage of suspects since her tongue lashed a few too many lies about people, which keeps the Laundry Club Ladies and Mae West unwrapping clues faster than a kid on Christmas.

Vistas Vices and Valentines:

Join Mae West and the Laundry Club Ladies as they cha cha and twirl their way around Happy Trails Campground as they put on some sleuthing dance shoes to bring closure to this southern and fun cozy Valentine's mystery.

It’s the relationships

As always, the inconsistencies drive me bananas. In the first book of the collection, Ms Kappes rewrote another character’s history, now making Hank a former FBI agent. It would be so easy to keep track of details like that, but the author doesn’t bother.

And yet, I return to the series because I like the characters. I tried some of her other works, but found them wanting. These are nice to listen to while I do other things because a good portion of them consists of repetition (which is why I notice the inconsistencies). You don’t have to pay close attention. Sometimes she even surprises you with the perp (but not often).

These stories are fun!

“What is there to not like?” is the better question. These stories are interesting, engaging and entertaining. So far, I’ve listened to 24 of these books and want to listen to them all. My only complaint is that the books are too short! Every time I listen to one, I want to start another. Fun!
They make me want to run out, buy a camper and hit the road!
