NCLA Review - The Bargain Hunter’s Network (BHN) travels to Calamity, Nevada, a town that lives up to its name. The four women plan to outlet shop while one of their husbands tries to introduce a new product at the Inventor’s Expo. They endure lost luggage, broken air conditioning, and find themselves involved in the murder of a sleazy hotel operator. That’s when the BHN goes into detective mode to solve the killing and clear their names. This second BHN mystery romps through madcap scenes including a bicycle chase, a squirrel lover’s convention, a frustrated actor in a teddy bear costume, a golf cart pursuit, and a final standoff with the killer. Dunn brings God into the plot just enough to classify this as a Christian mystery, but there is so much going on and so many characters, readers can get confused. Overall, a fun mystery that’s an easy read with a good dose of humor. Rating: 3—NSK Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Another murder mystery for the Bargain Hunters Network–only this time, one of them is a suspect! Ginger and her husband, Earl, are in for a wild ride in Calamity, Nevada, along with the other BHN ladies–college student Kindra, mother-of-four Suzanne, and sassy senior Arleta. They came to town for the Invention Expo and some outlet shopping, but instead they endure lost luggage, broken air conditioning, and a long line of people angry at hotel owner Dustin Clydell. With the Invention Expo and the Squirrel Lovers’ convention both in town, the Wind-Up Hotel has somehow overbooked. Before the night is over, a man has been found dead in a teddy bear costume, the Invention Expo has been canceled, Binky the water-skiing squirrel has gone missing…and the authorities want to talk to one of the BHN ladies! What else could possibly go wrong? Once again, the Bargain Hunters Network swings into sleuth mode to solve the murder–and this time, clear one of their own. Along the way, Ginger discovers something even better than a bargain. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

My Thoughts:
Sharon Dunn has a knack for writing hilarious fiction at the same time she tells a good story. A master at constructing a cozy mystery, Sharon skillfully weaves in all the elements that keep the reader guessing. The red herrings, false clues, dead-end trails, it's all there. It's not the type of book I usually read...that's the great thing about group challenges... but if you are looking for a mystery and suspense book on the lighter side then this certainly one to consider.
Death of a Six-Foot Teddy Bearis one fast-paced and delightful ride. A missing cat and a water-skiing squirrel, combined with a cluster of outrageous yet believable characters will have you eagerly flipping the pages to see what happens next. Not to mention trying to figure out who-dun-it.
