review 1: It is a pretty good little story. I figured out "who done it" pretty quickly, the characters are interesting and likable. I however cannot stand the "speak." It is not that they are southern - no problem there, but it is that every character in the book is apparently uneducated in English. Speaking with a southern accent and speaking like an uneducated "hillbillie" are not the same thing!! One character with this speak, I might tolerate, but the whole town - no. I have one more of Ms. Trent's Myrtle series to read. If the characters do not get an English education in that book; I am going to miss Myrtle.
review 2: Myrtle Crumb is an amateur detective and when she meets Jim at a dance she realizes that he was accused of killing his wife. She decides to find ou... moret the truth about Jim and his missing wife Flora.I really like Myrtle and her spunky persona. Her interactions with the other characters and with the reader are well done. I have the other 2 stories in the series and hope they are just as good. less
