Mystery Woman Sleuth | Mystery Amateur Sleuth | Holiday
Move over, Miss MarpleโMark Reutlingerโs charming cozy debut introduces readers to the unforgettable amateur sleuth Rose Kaplan and her loyal sidekick, Ida.
ย
Everyone knows that Rose Kaplan makes the best matzoh ball soup aroundโsheโs a regular matzoh ball mavenโso itโs no surprise at the Julius and Rebecca Cohen Home for Jewish Seniors when, once again, Mrs. K wins the honor of preparing the beloved dish for the Homeโs seder on the first night of Passover.
ย
But when Bertha Finkelstein is discovered facedown in her bowl of soup, her death puts a bit of a pall on the rest of the seder. And things go really meshugge when it comes out that Bertha choked on a diamond earring earlier stolen from resident Daisy Goldfarb. Suddenly Mrs. K is the prime suspect in the police investigation of both theft and murder. Oy veyโitโs a recipe for disaster, unless Rose and her dear friend Ida can summon up the chutzpah to face down the police and solve the mystery themselves.
