    I had to wait to read this new Garden Girls' adventure until I finished my book club book! It was well worth waiting for...with a robbery mystery, homemade remedies for memory loss, and Gloria and her chums off and running again to fight crime in their quiet community. They want to help their newly engaged friends-Andrea & Brian fight the new threat to their upcoming wedding.

    I love these colorful characters and their well-developed personalities. The author knows how to keep you turning pages until the last page, then wish there was more! I can hardly wait for the next installment... Thank you, Hope, for sharing your wonderful writing talent in such a positive way. Mshell

    5.0 out of 5 stars Another Winner From Hope Calaghan
    Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    I have a Ph.D. in English with a specialty in creative writing, and I taught writing on the college level for years. Besides that, I am a mystery writer myself, and that should give me the right to make comments about the work of other writers. To be honest, a few of Callaghan's writing habits make me want to bite. But the work taken all together is so impressive that her quirks are forgivable.

    Fiction is usually driven by plot or by character. Callaghan 's fiction is definitely in the second category. The plots tend to be complex but light, whereas the characters are more and more themselves in each successive work. It takes considerable skill to balance so many characters who are in every book one way or another, even if sometimes some appear only in the form of emails and phone calls.

    I cannot help wondering why the reviewer who called this another book not worth reading (or something like that; I didn't read past the first sentence.) bothers to read more of Callaghan 's books! I suspect that I am more qualified than she to comment, and I find them well worth reading. If I were a buyer/editor for a publishing company, I would recommend the purchase of the books subject to a thorough edit.

    I strongly recommend that these books be read in order. In some character-driven series, such as the Pam and Jerry North books, the central characters remain the same been as the world changes around them. But in Callaghan seria the characters do change from book to book to book.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, but retains the shallowness and ridiculousness of the last couple of books.
    Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    Here in book 13 Brian is the victim of a burglary. The mystery in this story is interesting but the plot is contrived. Having his fiancee Andrea run away from the challenges of Brian's amnesia is ridiculous. The author has shown an excellent imagination, so it is disappointing that she has not developed better behavior choices for her characters. In addition, producing a new character who creates magical herbal potions is fairly ridiculous and adds a note of idiocy to what should be a fun series.

    I am enjoying this series of books. A little old fashioned, funny in parts and a change to the usual detectives that are characters in other detective stories. It makes a change having a group of ladies doing the sleuthing. Looking forward to reading more.
