A bit of a wishy-washy ending
Not quite up to the standards of the previous books. Did they actually get the killer? Who was involved in the scheme? It just seemed to leave it up in the air a bit. Although the news about Olivia surprised me and about the identity of the Fellow Concerned Sleuth. Plus it great to see her evolving relationship with Ralph
A date with Ralph turns into a nightmare when she receives a call that Olivia's body has been found. However the body is found another young woman. A young woman who had uncovered some serious crimes at her new job and was investigating. A blackmail scheme, a reporter, gum chewing, an attempted hit and run plus news about her missing nephew. Will they find out where Olivia is? Will they discover what the young woman had unearthed? Who is the Fellow Concerned Sleuth? Is the missing nephew in trouble?

If you could give half a star, I would have given this one 3 1/2 stars. I liked it right up until the end. The resolution left some things hanging that I wish were better resolved.

There is blackmail, deception, attempted murder and murder.
You must read this book!!!!

Henrietta and Ralph are on a Valentine's date when a phone call leads them to a murder scene. The victim is unknown to them but has leads that lead to arrest. Jacob an employee wants to help with leads to her sisters son.
I would recommend this series and author to readers of romantic family and friends relationships adventure mystery novels. 🎶🎎🎉😃🐈

Good story...
...liked the addition of Jacob as the Fellow Concerned Sleuth - but was surprised about Olivia & Scott - didn’t see that coming at all. The stories, or should I say mysteries, but I wish the relationship between Henri& Ralph would move along - it’s been in limbo too long.

The Concerned Fellow Sleuth helps
Heart pounding, Henrietta and Ralph head to Bowen Park to identify remains fearing it is one she knows and dreading the outcome. This throws them into another mystery to agonize over. I’m sorry but this book has, what to me, feels like an unfinished and abrupt ending.

Another great story!
This story did not disappoint. Wonderful characters and interesting plot twists. I didn't figure out who the murderer was until the end. I can't wait to read the next book!

Great read
Have read all 9 books and find Henri and Ralph an ideal twosome. Henri is an independent woman and loves solving mysteries.
