Preview Reunions Can Be Murder

Description:

An unpleasant female lawyer barges into Charlie's office and demands that the firm immediately drop everything and find her elderly father, who has gone missing-all because there is a big family reunion coming up. Charlie knows she's going to regret this, but she gives in. The hunt takes her on a wild chase when she learns that Willie McBride was an avid gold prospector. Praise for the Charlie Parker mystery series: "...a female sleuth with an original slant to her methods." -Small Press Magazine "Charlie is slick, appealing, and nobody's fool-just what readers want in an amateur sleuth." -Booklist "Charlie is a fabulous amateur sleuth." -Midwest Book Review "A good story and a challenging puzzle." -Robert O. Greer, National Public Radio "Down to earth and very readable." -Library Journal "Tension is fast-paced in this involving account." -Midwest Book Review

From Library Journal

Recently married, Charlie (Memories Can Be Murder) sees her firefighting husband off to a New Mexico site, then checks the private investigations office where she and her brother work as partners. An unpleasant woman practically forces an unusual case on her: to find her elderly and senile prospecting father-before the family's impending reunion. With very little searching, Charlie finds bizarre characters, a yellowing treasure map, a deserted mine, and a corpse (but is it of the right person?). Fans of Southwestern mysteries will find that Shelton's engaging story, likable heroine, and comfortable prose make this a good choice.
