5.0 out of 5 stars I want to be Lilly Bennett!, January 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Birthday Party (Hardcover)

I found the first Lilly Bennett book by accident during a browse of the library....and have read them all as fast as she can get them published. I want to be LILLY! Who else has money, a great office, a family that provides comic relief at just the right moments, a husband who picks YOU over a Las Vegas showgirl,AND a badge? If you enjoy your mysteries with a pinch of danger, unusual characters, and a whole lot of fun....read this series! Start at the beginning, or start with this one...you'll be glad you did!

4.0 out of 5 stars Murder, marriage and showgirls! What more could you want?, July 12, 2000

This review is from: Birthday Party (Hardcover)

A boring tribute party quickly gets exciting when a commando dressed intruder blows a large hole in Clay Parker, hasbeen cowboy star, before U.S. Marshall Lilly Bennett Jerome can react. Soon Lilly is involved with visiting Las Vegas showgirls, missing Faberge eggs that belong to a former flame of Lilly's and current Mafioso, family feuds over land use, and brother Elias Bennett's pending marriage. And murder after murder.

As satisfying as the previous Bennett books, with more than normal confusion. Lilly's family, friends and associates are a delight, but at the rate people in Roundup are dying, it won't be long until only the Bennetts will be left.

This review is from: Birthday Party (Mass Market Paperback)

This is my first read by Kelloggand what a kick! One murder afteranother keep US Marshal LilyBennett with no clues but pressureby Janet Reno to get the casessolved. Wyoming has lots of landand lots of people scheming underthe table to get that land. Theauthor tosses humor into the mixand finally puts all the piecestogether to solve them all. Ihad no idea who was behind themurders and there is plenty ofsuspense to keep you reading right up to the end and you finish the book with a smile onyour face knowing that the birthday gal ends up far awayfrom where the party was to beheld. This s just the book toread between the more seriousmurder-mysteries. I intend to readmore of Marne Kellogg's books.
