"Two Settle The Score" - (Book 4 in the Sweet Southern Sleuths Short Stories)

----------------------------------------

With the Thanksgiving holiday right around the corner, twin sisters Loretta and Lacy Sweet are excited about their parents upcoming visit and to show them around their new home in the cozy town of Misery, Mississippi.

On the day that their parents are scheduled to arrive, Uncle Ichabod disappears, leaving a mysterious note behind. Loretta, feeling compelled to track her uncle down, follows him to Las Vegas, accompanied by her reluctant twin sister, Lacy.

As they begin to sort through the clues to find their quirky relative, the amateur sleuths discover he's really there to settle an old score from years earlier.

Can the girls find Uncle Ichabod before it's too late...or will "bad blood" from the past put all of their lives in danger?

Review

"A really great, fun mystery to read - This was the fourth book in the Southern Sleuths mystery series. And as always, Hope has out done herself. A really great, fun mystery to read.

It is shorter than most of her books. But it is still packed with a lot of twists and turns. She never disappoints. I have enjoyed all of her books and would highly recommend all of her books." - Cynthia Graham

"The Wonderful Short Story Continues - This is the fourth short story in Hope Callaghan's Sweet Southern Sleuths Cozy Mystery Series and is a wonderful read. This book includes a well-plotted storyline, well-developed characters, and an interesting mystery to try to solve. Ms. Callaghan's books do not have any adult language, graphic violence, or sexually explicit scenes. This short story held my interest throughout. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading light, cozy Christian mysteries.

Thanksgiving is just days away and the twins' parents will be arriving soon but there's a problem ... Uncle Ichabod is missing! Loretta finally traces his movements through town and learns that he's heading to Las Vegas to try to right a wrong. Loretta and Lacy follow him to Las Vegas and find themselves in a life-threatening situation. I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review."- RO G'ma
