Gladdy Gold Mystery #4
"The Golden Girls play Nancy Drew in their own funny and creative ways...colorful and Meshugeneh."—Mystery Scene

Gladdy Gold has traded New York snow for Florida sunshine and she's loving every second! With a handsome gentleman, poolside gossip and a thriving private investigator business (perfect for a dedicated snoop!), life is grand…until a trip back to the Big Apple leads to Big Trouble. And murder!


Luckily for Gladdy, Sophie, Bella, and Ida, her fellow detectives are right behind her. While the girls stretch their undercover skills by posing as bag ladies (not the Chanel kind) to catch a criminal, another surprise awaits! Gladdy's boyfriend, Jack Langford, is in town too—and reopening a cold case: the murder of Gladdy's husband. Can Gladdy and Jack finally solve this very personal crime—and maybe find some closure in the process?
