Coming right up - a fourth rollicking round of Whiskey Mattimoe! Summer brings some new and familiar faces to her quirky Michigan town. There's MacArthur, the hunky Scotsman whose Glasgow real estate experience could make him an excellent agent at Whiskey's office; self-help author and karma expert Fenton Flagg, who's got Whiskey's libido boiling over; and her ex-husband Jeb Halloran, who can still send chills down Whiskey's spine, when he's not crooning pet lullabies. But steamy romance is impossible amid the shrill cries of Velcro, Whiskey's new teacup-sized shitzapoo pup. Inexplicable sightings of Gill Gruen, the former mayor who drowned last winter, have the town on edge. But the doggy poop really hits the fan when Whiskey's felonious Afghan hound discovers a murder scene on the shore of Lake Michigan. If it wasn't the riptide that killed Twyla Rendel, Whiskey's high-risk tenant, who did?
In Wright's sprightly fourth mystery to feature Magnet Springs, Mich., realtor and sleuth Whiskey Mattimoe (after 2007's Whiskey and Tonic), one of Whiskey's duplex tenants, Twyla Rendel, whom she believed to be a struggling single mother of two, is seen by a neighbor with seven children. After Whiskey informs Twyla she faces eviction, Twyla and the children vanish. Whiskey and Magnet Springs police chief Jenx Jenkins are determined to investigate these disappearances as well as the reported sightings of Whiskey's old realtor rival, Gil Gruen, whom Whiskey saw die the previous winter. Twyla later turns up dead, but where are the children? Wright's mix of humor, crime and romance infuses this cozy with down-home zest. At the same time she makes some solid points about greed, bad parenting and real estate. (May)
