I had not read any books by this author but the story line interested. The main character has lost her grandmother and her grandfather is taking it hard. She decides to try and breath life back into the motel and bait shop that they ran but he has lost interest in most things. She takes the task on but not without dangerous consequences; but she won't be stopped! A good cozy mystery. The plot is clear, it moves along and the characters are well written.
Waiting to read #2.
