출판사 설명
Folk art museum curator, rancher and sometime sleuth Benni Harper is back in an unforgettable new mystery, organizing a Memory Festival. But a sniper threatens to make it a day to remember in the worst way…
Benni and the ladies of her Coffin Star Quilt Guild are excited to display their Graveyard Quilt at the first ever San Celina, California, Memory Festival. The fair promises to be a moving event celebrating memories through quilts, crafts, scrapbooks, photographs, written word, oral histories, and tributes to loved ones.
But when a local cop is wounded by a mysterious sharp shooter with a vendetta against the police, Benni fears for her loved ones—especially her police chief husband, Gabe. Soon Benni is drawn into the search for the sniper, determined to make her hometown safe again…before their peaceful street fair becomes a shooter’s deadly target range.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Benni Harper and her second husband, police chief Gabe Ortiz, face two unexpected situations in Fowler's well-paced 15th mystery set in San Celina, Calif. (after 2010's State Fair). First, a sniper takes a shot at a police car parked near the courthouse, shattering the driver's-side window. Fortunately, the vehicle was unoccupied. Second, a strange woman, supposedly scoping out the central California coast for a retirement home, finagles a meeting with Benni, who's discomfited by how much the woman knows about Gabe's past. Meanwhile, Benni has plenty to do in her role as museum curator, rancher, and devoted daughter and niece to elderly and spunky relatives. In addition, she has the forthcoming Memory Festival to organize. While series fans might lament the relative dearth of quilting lore, a roster of mildly eccentric family and friends and a wealth of good humor are sure to please cozy readers.

Have read all her books and enjoyed them all. This book gave me such a good feeling when I was done. Family, friendships both old and new and rewarding for us all.

Sad to say that this was the last in the series of Benni Harper Mystery series. Earlene Fowler never waned from her writing style and the last book is still as fresh and lively as the first. For all you die hard Benni Harper fans, you can catch up with the whole clan 10 years later in Earlene's book "Love Mercy" which is one of Benni's neighbors by the Ramsey Ranch. Found out what has happened to Benni, Gabe, Dove and the rest of the family.
Great, as always
What a shame this will probably be the last in the Bennie Harper mystery series. This is a very touching book, touching on the long term effects of PTSS. My favorite series, I re-read them, in order, every couple of years!
