Riches to rags.... Old cases never die.... Love spans decades...even if unrequited!

With her estranged husband still pestering her, Doreen is looking for a new case to keep her interest and to help her dodge Mack and his brother’s scoldings. So she decides to delve deeper into the Bob Small case, especially since it pertains to Nan’s now-deceased friend.

Doreen Is Growing

Doreen is growing into her skin. Sometimes her naïve and immature responses in some of the previous books annoyed me. I felt like Doreen in the last two books has developed confidence. She is sharing more of her thoughts and suspicions and talking more with Mack. I think that some of her previously acquired material on Bob Small could have played more into the scenario of solving this one, but overall the twist was good and Dale kept it from going too dark which I appreciate. I can’t wait to see how Doreen changes as she finishes the series.

Great

Love this series looking forward to the next one. Hope she starts over with the alphabet.
