Ratings and reviews

verbal-humor, situational-humor, murder, investigation, cozy-mystery, seniors Another Laugh Your Sox Off cozy mystery from Pawpaw County, Indiana. It seems like almost every male in the area is a philandering fool, and we won't even get into a discussion about the women. But it seems that only the males are the ones getting dead which makes a lot of work and laughter for our favorite senior sleuthing team of Ruby Jane and Veenie. No spoilers needed, and the characters certainly are which you can tell from the publisher's blurb. If you need some howling good laughs in a mystery with a plot, this is the place! I requested and received a free ebook copy from Hot Pants Press via NetGalley. Thank you!

Good book otherwise.
