Publisher Description
Film lover Barbara Marr is a typical suburban mom living the typical suburban life in her sleepy little town of Rustic Woods. Typical that is, until she sets out to find the missing link between a bizarre monkey sighting in her yard and the bone chilling middle-of-the-night fright fest at the strangely vacant house next door. When Barb talks her two friends into some seemingly innocent Charlie's Angels-like sleuthing, they stumble upon way more than they bargained for and uncover a piece of neighborhood history that certain people would kill to keep on the cutting room floor
"This fun if light novel's quippy, hilarious character, Barbara Marr, has so much warmth and genuine gumption, you'd certainly want her on your criminal investigative team." - Publishers Weekly
Customer Reviews
Funny crime novel with unguessable ending
A well written, amusing crime caper which keeps you guessing until the end.
A good story
Haven't read a book on my iPad in ages and picked this up via a google search for free titles. A good book with good characters and plenty of twists and turns. Enjoyed the way the plot worked out. Worth a read.
Just right for me
Normally I would never go near anything with violence in it - whatever media it was. I really enjoyed this though. For a change from chick lit. Amusing, kept me reading but without. Blood, guts and gore. As a nurse I see enough of that at work! Can't believe I actually read a crime/murder book and enjoyed it without it giving me nightmares. Going onto the next one now.
