Claire Malloy needs a place to stay while her apartment is being fumigated and a customer Dolly Golightly offers her the use of her house while she's out of town. Soon Claire's duaghter Caron and her friend Inez find a dead body by the pool but the body soon dissappears. The story gets a bit convoluted with mobsters and FBI agents but a good read. ( ) I'm a huge Joan Hess fan, and orginally fell in the love with the Maggody series. Since I've started the Claire Malloy ones, I do find myself appreciating the two different series equally. With that said, this had the usual cast of quirky characters - and the usual cast of random people that suddenly appear in Claire's life and causes more than a little chaos. Fun as always, though I have enjoyed others more. I didn't see the "reveal" coming - though I never do know who her villan is. Not one of my favorites as far as the villan is concerened, but Claire and Caron where predictably nosy and annoyed - respectively. Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheClaire Malloy (15)
Claire Malloy runs a bookstore in the normally quiet college town of Farberville, Arkansas - an enterprise which provides the verging-on-meager living for her and her deeply sarcastic teenage daughter Caron. So when emergency work forces Claire and Caron to abandon their apartment for a few weeks, they are in no financial position to put themselves up in style and Claire is thrilled to accept a customer's offer to let them stay at her well-stocked, well-equipped palatial home while she is traveling. Of course, nothing is ever that easy. No sooner do Claire and Caron ensconce themselves than disquieting events start to occur - dubious people show up looking for the 'traveling' owner of the house; the owner herself turns out not to be who she claimed and is now seemingly on the run; and a dead body keeps turning up - and subsequently disappearing - around the grounds of the house. Determined, for once, to stay out of the mysterious doings, Claire's hand is finally forced when the disappearing body turns out to be only the first corpse to turn up...
