Charlaine Harris can't seem to write a bad book. SLEEP LIKE A BABY is another excellent example. Aurora is back and very pregnant. After delivering her beautiful daughter Sophie, she is thrown into the world of loving a child. Experiencing the kind of love only a parent can know. Of course, being Aurora, life is never just simple motherhood.
Her husband, Robin Crusoe, goes on a business trip leaving Aurora with Sophie, her brother, and a nanny, Virginia, to help. The day Robin leaves, Aurora comes down with a full blown case of the flu. Virginia is a life saver until Aurora wakes up to a screaming baby and can't find Virginia anywhere. If a missing nanny isn't bad enough, what Aurora does find is a body in the back yard. Now with a horrible case of the flu, Aurora must deal with a missing nanny, a dead stranger, and a very hungry baby.
Aurora and Robin are a wonderful couple, along with her brother and new baby Sophie, you have a family that you love and want to follow. It sure helps keep the story exciting, that if there is trouble anywhere then it will involve Aurora or those close to her.
Aurora and Robin look into the case, even as the police investigation progresses. They are practical and talk though things in a manner that insures the readers can feel their process working.
As I said, Charlaine Harris can not write a bad book. She has the most wonderful characters written. You become part of their lives and love their town. You want to go over, share a cup of tea with Aurora and read Robin's latest novel. I'm so glad the Aurora Teagarden series is still going strong. I can't wait to see what kind of trouble she will get into next.
