Review
Moving Can Be Murder is jam-packed with Carol's cast of best buds and signature Santangelo fun! As I watched the story unfold, I couldn't help but chuckle at every turn. Carol has learned the subtle art of keeping her mouth shut -- when it's absolutely necessary. However, that doesn't stop her mind from working overtime with the quick-witted, sarcastic remarks she allows to roll around in her brain. Susan Santangelo has done it again. She has penned a magnificent cozy that will leave you panting from the excitement, laughing at the characters and -- no surprise here -- begging for more. --Terri Ann Armstrong, author of Morning Menace
Susan Santangelo has made a huge splash in the literary community.
