First time in print. When three maids of the Pennyfoot Hotel are discovered dead--each missing one shoe--Cecily wants answers. But with such a peculiar crime, she has no idea where to begin. It looks like the only thing she can do is wait--for the other shoe to drop.

More About the Author
I grew up in London, England, and at a very early age began telling stories to my school friends during the London Blitz of WW II while huddling in bomb shelters. I moved to the U.S. in the early sixties, and had passed my 50th birthday when I published my first book. Since then I've written over fifty romance and mystery novels. I have one son, and married for the second time shortly after my 60th birthday.

Cozy with an Edge.,

This review is from: Maid to Murder (Pennyfoot Hotel Mystery Series, 12) (Paperback)
In the final book of this mystery series, Cecily and Baxter have to solve the most sinister, frightening crime the Pennyfoot has ever had. Maids are being murdered in the hotel and the clues are puzzling.As always, there are enough twist and turns to keep you guessing and enough activities and characters to keep you entertained. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. I have read every book in the Pennyfoot series and not one has ever fell short of my expectations. Ms. Kingsbury has created a memorable series with delightful characters that can be enjoyed over and over again.

I cried at the ending!,

This review is from: Maid to Murder (Pennyfoot Hotel Mystery Series, 12) (Paperback)
Kate Kingsbury does it again with a smashing book of murder and intrigue at the Pennyfoot Hotel. The way she describes the hotel and surrounding environs makes me wish I had a Tardis and could go back in time to such a seemingly simple time and place.The ending is truly creepy and I felt apprehension and fear. Wow! What a story from a terrific story teller! Although there is great joy for the characters in the book, it is always sad in real life to see the apparent end of one of your favorite series. Kate, if you're reading this, I hope you have future plans for the Pennyfoot and its inhabitants. I welcome comments from others regarding this book. Email me!

Disappointing,
By plum9195 "plum9195" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maid to Murder (Pennyfoot Hotel Mystery Series, 12) (Paperback)
I was very disappointed by my first visit to the Pennyfoot. This is 12th in the series and the author must be ready to "get rid" of the characters and it shows. The plot is rushed and contrived and the characters were stereotypes one and all. Perhaps if I had been following the series through several books I would have felt differently. Recommend not purchasing, instead borrow from library.
