Being a part of Cindy Bells ARC team is extremely easy, because leaving honest reviews is easy when you LOVE the books. Once again she has not failed to deliver a great cozy mystery with the treat of me being unable to guess whodunnit! I always mention that part of the charm for cozy mysteries is knowing who did it, but Cindy is a master of delivering cozy mysteries while not letting that happen. I love that! This book delivered that just like the others, while still providing the charm of some of our favorite characters from this series, especially sweet Pilot.

I did NOT see that coming!
Two bounty hunters walk into an Inn… lol. One bounty hunter is named Sam and the other is named Drake. Both are after the same convict, Gerald. Drake is a real jerk demanding this and that and being altogether rude to Mary and Suzie even though they’re nothing but nice to him. Sam is the nice one. Luckily someone helps put Drake in his place. Unfortunately that place is at the bottom of a very high hunter’s blind.
Mary’s daughter, Cathy and her two girlfriends, Rochelle and Matilda are also staying at Suzie and Mary’s inn for Thanksgiving.
All the ladies go into town to watch a Thanksgiving play. Well, they don’t get to see the play and neither does anyone else, because the area becomes a crime scene once the ladies discover a body.
Cathy is just as curious and anxious to get to the truth as her mother and Suzie are, so she goes about with Rochelle and Matilda looking for clues. At the same time, Mary and Suzie are out doing their own investigating, but Mary tells her daughter she’s running errands. She doesn’t want Cathy to know she’s out looking around for evidence in the crime. And Cathy is doing the same thing for the same reason! They should have just gotten together and maybe they could have worked on solving the crime in 5 hours instead of 2 days! Lol. Crimes are solved quickly in Book World.
This time, Mary figures out who the killer is. She put the pieces together and figured out whodunnit and it was someone I didn’t expect. Oh, and I mustn’t forget to mention that Pilot helped save the day again! Woof woof and arf! Good dog!
Next is Book 27, Palm Trees and Protests

This is an ARC review.
This is cozy mystery with Mary and Suzie at Dune House. There are two bounty hunters in town looking for a fugitive on the run. Mary's daughter and her friends are in town as well. When murder hits the team must work together to solve the case before anyone else dies. As always Cindy Bell's books are clean, cozy mysteries that will have you guessing until the end!

Another Super Story!
I have missed reading about Mary and Suzie's adventures with their friends and family! I've been having trouble with my tablet, so I wasn't able to read several of the other books. I'm glad I was able to read this one and urge everyone to read as many of them as possible! They are all filled with fun, laughter and solving mysteries!!

Oh my. So so sad for such a young person to be so hardened inside. She never felt loved an I pray for all others who don’t feel
Loved. So many people need someone that cares.

Another great book!
This is a great series I'm still enjoying 27 books in! The characters go together well and the murderer is well hidden until the end.

Lots of action in this one. Twists and turns too. But why has Mary changed to being wimpy and treating her adult daughter like a child? She is making poor decisions and putting people in danger.
