A book you won't want to put down.
The story had me laughing at times and crying at other times. All in all, I loved it from cover to cover. Perfect title, by the way. LOL. And love your characters. The names Maud and Elmer were very out dated making me think at first the book took place back in the fifties, but their personalities sprang to life showing me it was the present day. Wonderful love story infused with mystery. A GREAT read. I started it shortly after noon and with two or three interruptions, I still finished it the same day. I didn't want to stop reading.
