Beside Still Waters: A Chautauqua Murder Mystery - Paperback
Details
by Deb Pines (Author)
Beside Still Waters is the fourth book in Deb Pines' traditional whodunit Chautauqua Mysteries featuring the wise and witty reporter sleuth of a certain age Mimi Goldman.
"An Agatha Christie for the text-message age," IndieReader calls the series. It's the summer of 2017 when Jenny Van Alstine, a gorgeous feminist artist who helps run Chautauqua's Episcopal Cottage, disappears. Jenny's grandmother seeks help finding her from her friend, reporter and relentless snoop Mimi Goldman. But what Mimi finds, instead, is a surprising number of Jenn-emies, haters who might be behind her disappearance, including Jenny's philandering husband, a girlfriend of his, a young cottage handyman and Jenny's estranged sister. With help from her computer-savvy son Jake, Mimi digs deeper into Jenny's family, the cottage doings and the art world where Jenny's known, and sometimes despised, for her controversial "Great Wall of Vagina." By the time Jenny's body is dredged from the lake, Mimi finds herself in danger, too -- from a killer determined to stop Mimi before Mimi stops them. Fans of Agatha Christie and Louise Penny and "Only Murders in the Building" will enjoy this twist-filled page-turner. Says Kirkus Reviews: "The juxtaposition of murder against the tranquil setting of the institution works its magic once again."Author Biography
