There are men in this world, who can’t stand the regular Joe having a good life. These men have always gotta be stepping on someone. Makes them feel important, and they are usually standing behind a flag or a Bible to knock the other guy down. Don’t let these people take your dreams away.

My Review:

My second Mona Moon adventure and I continued to be delightfully enamored with the moxie entrepreneur/sleuth. In this entertaining installment, Ms. Moon was dealing with errant family members, a sneaky yellow journalist, wedding preparations, a hotel full of guests, and an eccentric and infamous gate-crashing wedding guest named Georgia O’Keeffe; all of whom required a bit of special handling while she was also trying to solve the latest murder. People seem to drop dead around her with regularity.

Ms. Keam’s writing style and storylines were unfailingly engaging, flowed smoothly at a good pace, and were easy to follow. The characters were colorful, authentic, and well-detailed with brain-tickling descriptions and amusing quirks and observations. I’m primed for more Moon adventures.
