review 1: Another great Tamar Myers mystery. Perhaps I liked it so much as I haven't read for a while one of her mysteries with Abigail Timerberlake Washburn as the main character. I like Abby as she is short and sassy and an antique dealer. Abby's friend, Rob....half of the Rob/Bob couple, invites Abby to a party his aunt is throwing because she is dying. Aunt Jerry gives a scalding version of her will (that means telling people what they will get from her and then why and in not a nice manner) A short time later she is found dead in deep freeze. Of course, Abby is a suspect as she and Aunt Jerry had a conflict during the "will reading." The setting of this mystery is Charlotte, NC; where Abby lived previously. The cops who come to investigate are old "friends" of Abby a... morend have worked cases where she was a suspect. I love Tamar Myers' sense of humor. She decrbies the drivers of Charlotte,"However, anyone caught using his or her turn signals in Charlotte is immediately driven out to the city dump and executed by a firing squad. It is a very effective law, and one of the few that is consistently obeyed." I am always amazed at the characters that appear in Tamar Myer's books. They are so quirky and sometimes you can recognize traits of your own relatives and friends. Thank you Tamar for another quick, interesting and fun read.
review 2: This could be the worst mystery I've read all year- it definitely had the worst ending of any mystery I read this year. If I had actually paid for the book instead of borrowing it from the library, I'd say even worse things. As it is, I'm appalled that our library wasted money on buying this book. Money that would have been better spent scraping gum off sidewalks or upgrading the toilet paper in the bathrooms. less
