Retired, Not Dead!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
The 3rd book in the series about residents in a California retirement community. For seniors Angela and Caledonia, the murder of the gardener at posh Camden-sur-Mer is a delightful break in their routine! The residents of a retirement community (not a nursing home!) have a murderer in their midst. Two murders happen quite closely together and no one sees a connection until a third happens. Angela is actually the one that helps the police find the connection and puts herself in danger with the real killer. This book's ending was a bit of a surprise and was genius the way it was put together. This book shows that retirement does not mean "out to pasture" and shows how valuable the elderly are (to those that, unfortunately, need a reminder!). This was a delightful look at a feisty group of retirement residents that work together to help the police solve a murder. The characters grow with each book in the series and this book was a great addition to the first two. Great for all ages! The first book in this series is "The J Alfred Prufrock Murders". Enjoy!
