Review #88
A China Bayles Mystery
The arrival in Pecan Springs, Tex., of Sally Strahorn, the insecure ex-wife of China Bayles's husband, PI Mike McQuaid, immediately leads to trouble. Against her better judgment, herbalist and tea-shop owner China, takes pity on Sally, who shows up at her herb shop claiming to be broke with nowhere else to turn, and offers her a place to stay.
Soon enough, a stalker targeting Sally makes threatening calls to China and the police are suspecting Sally of involvement in a murder. With Mike away on business, China again turns sleuth to determine what connection the stalker might have to the deaths of Sally's parents almost 10 years earlier and the deaths of Sally’s sister, Leslie, and friend, Joyce, in the past few days. She must, also, prevent any harm to herself or to her husband’s son and niece who live with them.
With friend Ruby’s help she’s off and running!
This is Albert’s 18th China Bayles Mystery and it is just as good as all the ones that came before! It’s interesting and fast paced!
