A Charlotte Adams Mystery
review 1: Oh my what a difficult time Charlotte Adams, our beloved sleuth has trying to prove that there was No murder committed. This unusual spin on the classic mystery form was amusing and fresh.Softly underneath the story line is Charlotte's life and relationships. The Author uses a subtle wordplay that reminds me of an excellent harmony in music. It flows but never over takes the soloist. This book was my favorite to date in the very wonderful series.Now to be patient and await the next....

The case Charlotte is solving involves the death of a woman at a construction site that was believed to be an accident, but her mother is convinced it was murder.

Still, the organizing tips are always worth a glance, and there are some chuckles along the way, so if you're looking for a light read, this is probably a good bet. less
