Unlike able and boring characters and the plot moves very slowly

[Linda · Rating 3 out of 5]

A nice end to the series. I found these books to be short, snappy and fun and this one was no exception. I liked the story and the ending was good.

[Kellie · Rating 3 out of 5]

This one was a little better than the last one, but not by much. I got annoyed by little inconsistencies in the storytelling. I've also decided that I don't like Jean (Sr.) very much. I liked the Six Sisters storyline and wish the author and somehow centered the plot on that story rather than having it come up only at the end.

Interior designer Jean and her daughter JR are asked to help a group of local people redo a decrepit mansion so they can flip the property. When Jean goes in to finish staging the place, however, she finds the body of one of the flippers. Another of the group is the chief suspect, but Jean is sure that she isn't guilty.

This book is okay. I liked others by this author better.

it was a good book but it did get a little slow at times. it was a bout a mother in law sleuthing to figure out three murders and their connection.
