ABOUT THE BOOK

Welcome back to Hope Street Church, where friendships are formed, fresh starts are encouraged, and mysteries are solved . . .

When an unscrupulous real estate agent tries to strong-arm a wealthy friend of Grammy Lee’s into selling her stately home, Cooper and her Bible study friends are called in to investigate—before any crime has been committed. Grammy’s fear is that the man is so devious he’ll try to bump off her friend in order to get his hands on the estate. But before Cooper and the gang can do much more than confirm he’s as sketchy as Grammy suspects, someone else takes matters into their own hands and takes the agent out of the picture, permanently.

The Bible study group knows that even the wicked deserve justice, so they continue to investigate, this time to catch a killer. There’s a full roster of service staff heading up their list of suspects, along with the elderly home owner herself. Then Cooper learns that the feds have taken an interest in the case, and suddenly she and her friends begin to worry they’re in real danger. Because nothing about this case is what it seems, and while charity may begin at home, this home is full of secrets that may cost Cooper her life . . .

Includes heavenly recipes from Magnolia Lee’s kitchen!

MY THOUGHTS

The ninth book in the Hope Street Church mystery series. This is a Christian fiction series.
A shady and unscrupulous real estate agent tries to take advantage of an elderly woman and get her wealthy home on the market.
Grammy Lee knows just what to do as she gets her bible study group involved before any crime is committed. Someone really has it in for the real estate agent though when his body turns up the investigation takes a heated upturn.
With a miles long suspect list there’s quite the involvement of sleuthing.
Well done mystery nicely plotted. This is my first book in the series, and I’ll be on the lookout for more to keep me reading like this one did.

I was given a complimentary copy of the book.
All opinions expressed are my own.
