This review is from: Another Hour To Kill (Volstead Manor Mystery Series #2) (Heartsong Presents Mysteries #30) (Mass Market Paperback)
I really tried to like this book but just couldn't get enough interest in the main character and her antics to really enjoy the book. I like the premise but it just didn't hold my interest.
I didn't care for the main character much at all. I didn't care for her friends and I thought the book just didn't have enough oomph to keep me interested. The fact that she even let the bad person across her threshold was beyond me. His description was enough for anyone with good common sense to slam the door or show him the door immediately. I read books because I like the characters in them and this one not to my liking. The mystery was really not engaging and I finally pulled the bookmark and called it a day.

If you are looking for a clean, cozy mystery, with interesting characters, and an inspiring message, then this is the book for you. ANOTHER HOUR TO KILL is the second title in the Volstead Manor Mystery series and it is entertaining from the very first page. Bailey's wonderful sense of humor makes her the perfect heroine and I had a good time searching for the lost treasure with her. I can't wait for the last one in the series. GREAT BOOK!

MS Higman has brought the second in the series A VOLSTEAD MANOR MYSTERY to those of us who really liked the first in the series, Another Stab at Life. This second book has the same cast of characters with additional secondaries to make the plot more interesting. I was only a bit dismayed by the fact I figured out the antagonist too soon - my ONLY complaint. ;D
Another Hour to Kill is more action-oriented and the mystery is still mystery. The hero is one patient and loving guy!
