They visit, he spends the night, and in the morning he asks for money. Minnie feels no price is too high to see her long lost love again. But when Minnie's family finds out, they phone the police, trying to put an end to their mother's seemingly crazy behavior before she blows through every bit of her savings.

Great series!

I have read all ten books and enjoyed all equally. Can only say that I intend try other of Mr. Riesel's books and keep my fingers crossed in the hope that I will get as much pleasure from them.

Easy read.

I liked the way the writing, the stories flowed. In other books I've read each chapter was like starting a new book. I also liked the humor.
