Summary

We love our sisters, right? It's just that sometimes we love them because of, and sometimes we love them in spite of. But when murder's the crime and solving's your line, sisters count on sisters. It's a family thing.

Stuck in a corner any dog will bite.

Sleuth Sisters is a well written humerous murder mystery, peopled with compelling and realistic characters: a remarkably intelligent cozy. Two sisters, Barbara, a retired 52 years old lawyer, and slightly younger Faye, recently made unemployed, together open a private detective agency. A third, Margaretta, and baby of the trio, is not invited to join them as she has an irritating habit of always taking over and altering any enterprise in which she becomes involved. However, with almost no client work other than the search for a man believed responsible for the deaths of his wife and her brother, the sleuthing couple reluctantly accept the help of their gregarious little sister and her ability to set up appointments with almost anyone in the community.

The book is written in the first person, switching between the points of view of the three sisters, so the reader is able to know each woman from the inside out. Each is a distinctive and well defined character, different, one from the other, and very believable: Barbs, the intelligent, no nonsense unmarried eldest, the 'punctuation perfecter' with a secret habit of correcting grammatical mistakes on public buildings; Faye, good natured, hard-working and with a seriously disabled husband and the main income earner; and Getta, stylish, attractive, vivacious, interfering, always knows better. And the other protagonists are also well drawn, given believable lives - from the client, suffering from a brain tumour, looking for her brother, missing for six years, to the acerbic millionaire father of a murdered son and daughter, and the new Chief of police with an eye for the sisters - and everyone in between! Three excellent narrators, Judy Blue, Anne Jacques, and Laura Bednarski, each take the part of one of the sisters, reading the chapters told from that woman's perspective. A fine performance from all three.

I was most fortunate in being freely gifted with a complimentary copy of The Sleuth Sisters by the rights holder, following my request via FAFY. Thank you so much. The book was involving, fun and intelligently written. I very much look forward to reading more about these three sleuthing sisters. Recommended
