Road Trip
Evie and Dora are now in New Orleans to retrieve the disk drive to clear Dora from a murder. Now things do not go smoothly as they arrive to find Gertie who has or in this case had the Buddha bank is now dead. They managed to fake their way into her apartment and then the fun begins!
Myrtle who is Gertie’s friend helps them but she ends up dead as well. The plot is thickening. There are many plot twists and surprises to this story. Sunshine is still quite the dog helper and you will enjoy her in this story. Luke shows up thanks to Evie and helps them escape from New Orleans on their way to California to retrieve the bank.
Now the ending is not a cliffhanger but it does let you know the story is to be continued. Excellent mystery with humor! Enjoy this book because I know I look forward to the next in the series!
Bourbon Street, Beignets and Bodies
This is the second book in the series and even better than the first. Dora and Evie are on a road trip to recover the evidence that will clear Dora of a murder charge. Arriving in New Orleans, they immediately discover that retrieving the previously mailed Buddha containing the proof of innocence is going to be much more difficult than anticipated, not surprising considering these two seem to have a talent for finding trouble. Encountering friends and foes, the BFFs are plunged into another adventure involving a murder or two, stakeouts, gourmet food, a parade and even a naked poetry reading. There is an incident involving dumpster donuts that is hilarious. New Orleans is such a fabulous city and one of my favorites, and the author makes it come alive with unique characters and events so appropriate for this special destination. The story reminds me of my younger days with my BFF adventures, although as far as I know no murder was involved. I highly recommend this series and eagerly await #3. Note: I received an ARC; however, this is my voluntary review of a book I loved reading.
