Plot: Miss Julia is recently widowed and inherited her husband’s money. To makes things interesting, her small North Carolina town’s pastor has been asking her about what Miss Julia’s going to do with the money and if he could use it to help build a community center in honor of her late husband. To make matters worse, a Hazel Marie Puckett drops off a young boy and says the boy is her late husband’s child. Now Miss Julia has to decide what to do with the boy and how to take care of him, and make sure her money (and sanity) stay in the right hands. Can Miss Julia keep everyone safe? Or will she lose it all?
Rating: 3.5 – a different style of a cozy mystery
Opinion: This was an interesting book. I didn’t love it but didn’t hate it. The characters a little old fashioned and too off their rocker for me. Some of their ideas and actions were a bit weird for me. Maybe it’s the southern way or the style of the book but I didn’t love it. I rolled my eyes at some of the characters antics. It was an entertaining book but not one of my favorites. If you need a kinda silly and easy read this would be a good book.
