Maple sap is running in Chilson, MI, and Minnie is taking
out the bookmobile and visiting all her customers. Henry
Gill is a gruff man who never says anything nice, but he
presents Minnie with some maple syrup. When Henry dies
unexpectedly, Minnie is saddened.
The man who tried to help Henry suffered a
sudden heart attack during the attempt, and while open
heart surgery saves his
life, he is housebound until he recovers. With his wife
working two jobs, he needs all the reading material he
can get. Minnie is visiting Adam when someone
tries to run him down with a car. Only through Minnie's
quick reaction does he escape certain death.
As other attempts are made on Adam's life, Minnie becomes
more certain Henry's death wasn't an accident. Minnie and
Eddie,
the bookmobile cat, are on the case.
For people who like cats in their cozy mysteries, the
Bookmobile Cat Mysteries are not to be missed.
Minnie
has long conversations with Eddie as they travel the
county. She has some great friends, but her love life is
stagnating since her current boyfriend is studying in
Chicago. When a local detective asks her out, Minnie is
forced to re-evaluate her life. I've love this series since
I read the
first book because it's peopled with some great characters.
Ms. Cass does a
great job of maintaining the
continuity of the series. Each plot is fresh and takes
the reader on a journey as we watch Minnie succumb to
the urge to just ask a few questions. Not that she ever
stops there!
Curl up with the latest from the national bestselling author
of Borrowed Crime...

product.

rescue cat Eddie, Minnie meets Adam, the old man's friend,
who was with him when he died. Adam is convinced Henry’s
death wasn’t an accident, and fears that his own life is in
danger. With the police overworked, it's up to Minnie and
Eddie to tap all their resources for clues—before Adam ends
up in a sticky situation...
