The lottery ticket
A good read. Not the best in the series but not quite sure why. It had a good plot, plenty of good dialogue and all our favourites but it seemed somewhat subdued and maybe a touch lacklustre.
Her Gran's sleepwalking is getting more frequent and when the newly hired farm hand is killed his wife lamest her Gran for the death citing the sleepwalking. Billy is also reluctant to firm down a date for the wedding making her doubt him. Plus Suzy is close to her due date. Will Billy set a date? Will Suzy give birth soon? Will she unravel who is the killer? Is it possibly because of the old feud between the farm hand and another resident?

A other fun mystery
Emma has always been involving herself into the town’s mysteries but this time, it’s personal when her grandma is accused of murder. Between her job, her best friend having a baby, house chores and picking a wedding date, Emma is one busy lady. The mystery was entertaining as always and the ending was sweet.

Ozark Ghost Hunter #7
Apparently this is the penultimate book in the series, and again a decent yarn, and again the non-Ghost things are more interesting than the brief Ghostly stuff.
The characters are what makes this series go well.
Again with the our hero almost dies at the hands of the villain, which has worn thing.
But apart from the failings it is a fun yarn.

Solve a murder, or wait for a baby?
A long time grudge, loud arguing from the hired band's trailer, a murder, and a new baby. What do these things have in common? Emma! Enjoyed it!

Lots of fun
This series is very enjoyable. The characters are enjoyable. Even the killer, who is a psycho, made me chuckle. I love Snowball!
