Publisher Description

Anne George's delightful mysteries combine humor and suspense in equal measure. Patricia Anne and Mary Alice are "60-something" twin sisters who, after years of sibling rivalry, have discovered a mutual interest in folk art. However, Patricia Anne never dreamed that attending a gallery opening would land them in the middle of a murder investigation. Patricia Anne, a retired school teacher, is pleasantly surprised to see that Claire, a former student, is in charge of the show. The next day her surprise turns to shock when she hears that the gallery owner has died under suspicious circumstances, and she finds Claire huddled on her front porch. Claire claims to have narrowly survived an attack on her own life. But when the local art critic also dies mysteriously, Patricia Anne decides it's high time someone gets to the bottom of things. And she is just the person to do it. Ruth Ann Phimister's inspired reading captures all the good, clean fun of Murder On A Bad Hair Day while building the suspense to a fever pitch.

"I love this series. The murders and the people are intriguing. Patricia Anne is a great narrator. I wish I lived in her neighborhood with her dog Woofer and her Southern family and friends. I've read 4 in the series and can't wait to read more."

    " Again, don't know if my opinion of this book is due to my mood in which I read it at the time, but I felt the characters unbelievable and bumbling. It was more than easy for me to set this book down when I needed to do something, a bad sign. Usually I have to tear myself away from books. I really only finished this book not even because I was curious how it turned out, but only because I have only not finished reading about 3 books in my life. "

    " Fun book. I like the fact that Patricia Ann is not a good cook. Makes her seem more real. We always think of older women and being very domestic. "

    " I expected more from this series, something more in the vein of "Miss Julia." There was some language in the book and I felt the plot developed too slowly. I did enjoy the interaction between the two sisters, though. "
