Adventure, Abduction & Arrest by Tonya Kappes is the 25th book in the Campers & Criminals Cozy Mystery Series. I have read each of these books in the series and normally really enjoy them but I didn’t love this book.
Welcome to Normal, Kentucky where nothing is normal!
When Hank Sharpe asked me in the laundry club ladies to join him in an undercover investigation to help find a missing person, me and ladies grabbed our sleuthing notebook without hesitation.
As undercover Forest Bathing Therapist trainees we were bound and determined to find out with happened to Kyra Tenney. When we did find her body in what appeared to be an accidental forest fire, we thought we were finished with our undercover act.
Only the coroner’s report came back that our missing person had been killed before the fire.
Put on your sleuthing caps and join Mae West along with the Laundry Club Ladies as they take their investigation skills to a whole ‘nuther level! Especially after Mae finds herself in the fire!
As I mentioned, I didn’t like this book. I felt like this book was trying to really set up the latest book by the author Four Leaf Felony (read my review here) and it left out it to be one sided conversations that I had read the other side before. I also thought there was a lot of telling vs showing in the book. I found myself flipping pages and not reading it like I normally would. I am not sure if it is because I have read 25 of these books and have figured out the formula or if it just wasn’t as exciting as the others.
I plan to read book 26 in the series and see what I think.
