A first-time job in Real Estate for former stay-at-home mother, Harrie, may include more than she expected. Oh, she was counting on adventure. And new experiences. What she didn't plan on was a philandering boss. And murder.
Raised on the last of the great old Southern Alberta ranches and trained in journalism, Diane recounts tales of growing up in the bend of the north fork of the Milk River. Author of countless short stories, articles, poems, plays, songs and novels, she brings a wealth of western family ideals to her writing. Nothing intrigues more than a background story. And nothing is quite as peaceful as reliving the past.
I have read several of this author's books, so I was excited to read her first murder mystery! The main character is a stay at home mum reentering the work force as a real estate agent. Her husband runs the local hardware store, and they have two grown daughters with children. It is set in a small town just outside of Edmonton AB. Her first real estate listing leads to murder, mayhem, hijinks, plot twists, puns, and workplace intrigue! The plot kept me guessing until the end, the real life setting of the novel was delightful, and the characters were well developed and believable. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
