Local handywoman, Kate Flaherty keeps her head down and her hammer swinging, as reporters swarm Rock Ridge to cover the recent slew of murders.
But when a plucky reporter by the name of Jenna Johansen is shot dead, it would seem the reporters aren't just covering the news, but causing it. And Kate will have to use every tool in her kit to catch the killer.
Drugs are surfacing. The ex-cons are growing in numbers. Another young woman is mysteriously abducted. Andas Kate comes closer to discovering the dark connections that tie each and every crime, she soon realizes she's not the only one working hard to repair this town.
the series does need to the read in order for complete understanding. In this installment Kate aka mrs fix it decides to still try to solve her son's missing fiance's case. She doesn't do a lot of Handy work or fix it work in this installment but somehow magically finds her way in the middle of every single police investigation. just like in the last book we were left on a cliffhanger. I preferred the earlier installments where you got the entire story in each entry.
Beginning with book 6, the books became episodic and I'm sorry about that. Each subsequent book has become one long chapter in the episodes. Also, the main character has been making more and more questionable decisions. For a series that I started out loving, I am quickly starting to lose patience and loath them.
Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...
1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.
2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.
3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.
4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.
5 stars... I loved this book! It has earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.
I don't think I can even be bothered to write actual reviews anymore. If you're really interested in all the wackiness, look at my updates throughout reading. This story is all so ridiculous, I can't even.
A reporter is dead, is Jason involved in all the killings which have been going on. Kate is getting herself in deep water, will Kate be the next victim? Loving this series of short stories which make the whole.
Very cute cookie cuter mysteries that I devoured while I was cruising to Mexico... pretty sure I read 7 of the books in the series. This is a very cute mystery series to read if you are in the mood for something to take your mind off the world and have a little fun.
WOW! Very action-packed!! I keep feeling like I'm on the cusp of knowledge only for the rug to be pulled out from under me again... Just let me in on the secret already!
This one actually got a bit interesting. I was right about some things and wrong about some others. This one was actually enjoyable. Let's hope it keeps it up.
