I enjoy this fun cozy mystery series set in a Florida trailer park. Our resident amateur detective, Patty, is back with her friends to solve yet another murder in their small close-knit community. And yes, jokes are made about the ominous regularity with which mayhem strikes their little neighborhood, but in many ways, the mysteries at the heart of each book in the series is almost beside the point. It is the author's sharp observations of the petty politics of neighborhood rules and governing organizations, the loneliness, challenges, and regrets of aging, and the simple joys of even the most unlikely friendships that make these books appealing. This is a short, fast read, a nice palate cleanser between weightier books. For all of Patty's grumbling and anti-social tendencies, I wouldn't mind having her for a neighbor and enjoy spending time with her through these stories.

Tyrants come in many different forms
A good read that left the actual mystery until the end of the book. Yes it was still a good read but it just made me feel that the murder was a rush job plus I really didn't like the ending. It was the obvious one but nevertheless it didn't mean that I had to like it. The characters though are a delight as ever but is she loosing the edge of cynicism and derision that I loved about her from the first book. It also shows the ways that people become dictators and hold on at all costs.
Take new residents, a leadership challenge, a dating site, secrets, ghosts and a desire to remain in charge. Stir well with obsession and show no remorse. Result equals murder and an attempted murder. Will all survive to tell the tale?
