Accidental Detective Mystery #3
Be a Detective, They Said. It'll Be Fun, They Said
Wanda Jefferson, vampire/werewolf hybrid and (very) reluctant temporary PTA president, reporting for duty!
Yes, yes, yes. I’m a PTA member. Don’t be so shocked. I’d do anything for my two precious babies, Olivia and Sam, including whip up batches of cupcakes late into the night for their annual bake sale at the Paranormal School for the Gifted. And if I have to endure the most insufferable, controlling, bossy-pants PTA president in all of existence who goes by the name Neerie Lincoln-- so be it.
Except today, Neerie’s a no-show, leaving me in charge of the event. Inconceivable! The domineering little fae would never willingly miss the school’s biggest fundraising event. Who else will properly ensure sweet and savory treats never grace the same table?
Neerie’s sister claims she’s been missing for two days. When she begs me and my besties, Nina and Marty, to put our fledgling detective skills to work to find her, we’re reluctant. I mean, there’s no love lost for the PTA president. However, she’s left behind a little girl who misses her mommy something fierce—and THAT we can’t ignore.
Of course, Neerie has also left a recently disgruntled ex, a loser baby-daddy, and a long line of horribly mistreated people in her wake.
Read: the suspect list is sizeable. Any one of a dozen people have reason to want to un-alive the crazy fairy, up to and including the school janitor.
Oh…and have we mentioned Neerie’s absolutely obsessed with conspiracy theories? And the human groups devoted to them?
Yep. The suspect pool just got a whole lot bigger.

Marty, Wanda, and Nina are back on their next case. Things had been slow for a bit, but Wanda went to the PTA meeting where the leader is missing. Neerie is a very narcistic woman who believed in conspiracy theories. She was tracking missing school supplies among other things. She was horrid to everyone around her except her daughter. Her sister hires them to find her.
They have a bevy of suspects and little to go on, except a text message. They will discover several new species in their adventure that will leave them flabbergasted. But no closer to finding the missing woman. Then, they discover certain children are missing. But what does all this mean? What is the connection? When they discover Neerie’s phone, it will give them one more clue. Wanda walks right into the patch of danger~ Will she be able to escape? Several lives depend upon her…including her son’s. Another hilarious adventure!

Be A Detective, They Said. It’ll Be Fun, They Said the third book in The Accidental Detectives series is from Wanda Jefferson’s POV. Wanda’s children Olivia, Sam, and Heath, her husband, have more of a presence in this book.
The OOPs ladies are improving their investigative skills and using outside sources wisely. Their investigation leads them to several wild conspiracy theories. Book three takes on a couple plot twists I was not expecting making for a fun read.
The third book in The Accidental Detectives has great characters and framily make coming back to this world extremely enjoyable. The story has as much action as the previous books and was engaging. As a reader, I’m interested to see if those plot twists will end up in future books.

Just when you think they’ve seen it all Wanda, Marty and Nina find some new and fantastical creatures that blow even their minds. The accidental detectives third case is a missing persons case of the irritating, tyrannical and whacked out president of the pta. She may be a pita but her little girl is adorable and deserves her mommy no matter what. Through dogged determination and a whole lot of luck these ladies manage to get the job done.

Fab.
So loving this series.
Things seem to be going bump in the night, or afternoon if you like.
A fairy has gone missing and no one seems to be bother, except the ladies from OOPS.
But Wanda seems to think that a lot of little clues lead to a MASSIVE clue.
One, Bigfoot is REAL!!!!!
Two, so are BIG aliens!!
