"Too many twists and turns to easily share about this book. Nevertheless, Carr has pulled off another "hit" that kept me reading in one setting until the clues were so well together that the villain fell into our laps...or Chris's, LOL Carr has put a lot into the book beyond the mysteries this time...Characters enjoyed chocotinis, visited book stores...and even blundered into getting engaged (the ring had been purchased 4 months ago)... But, for me, a special thank you for the political spoof at a time when politics at the national level is devastating, gave me a laugh and lightened the load of it all!" - Review by Glenda Bixler, Book Reader's Heaven

Book Description:
“I’m working on the greatest mystery ever,” was the last thing noted mystery novelist Mercedes Livingston said to seven-year-old Chris Matheson before walking out of Hill House Hotel never to be seen again.
“I’m working on the greatest mystery ever,” was the last thing noted mystery novelist Mercedes Livingston said to seven-year-old Chris Matheson before walking out of Hill House Hotel never to be seen again.
For decades, the writer’s fate remained a puzzling mystery until an autographed novel and a letter put a grown-up Chris Matheson on the trail of a cunning killer. With the help of a team of fellow retired law enforcement officers, each a specialist in their own field of investigation, Chris puts a flame to this cold case to uncover what had really happened that night Mercedes Livingston walked out of Hill House Hotel. Watch out! The clues are getting hot!
Book Review:
Decades after being presumed dead following the death of her husband, Mercedes, a writer comes in to the radar of Chris. Chris receives an intriguing note from someone whom his mother is acquainted with at the local book club, and after he has managed to come over his surprise at being contacted by someone he had always thought was dead, Chris gets into action with the Geezer Squad to uncover the mystery behind the death of Mercedes' husband.
As riveting as all her earlier works, this one leaves the reader spell-bound. Woven with many layers of flashbacks and nuances, the book is an awesome read. Many thanks to Lauren from iRead Book Tours, the publishers, Acorn Book Services, and the author, Lauren Carr, for gifting me a copy of this book for an honest review.
