The Peanut Butter Did Not Do It!,
By
This review is from: Peanut Butter Murders (Mass Market Paperback)
The 4th book in the Retirement Mysteries by Corinne Holt Sawyer finds the ladies from Camden-sur-Mer at it again. Friends Angela Benbow and Caledonia Wingate investigate the death of Alexander Lightfoot, who was engaged to one of the residents at their retirement community. (not a nursing home!) Even though these two are in their 80's, no one dares to tell them that they are too old to investigate murders, and when they find out the victim was healthy and not suicidal, they immediately decide it was murder. When a second murder victim is found, Angela and Caledonia dig deeper to help Lt. Martinez solve this case, and find out no one (not even the victim) is as they would seem.I enjoyed the latest book in this series about the irrepressible Angela and Caledonia. Playing a larger part in this book is Tom Brighton, another resident in the community, and his cheerful demeanor in the midst of hip pain adds to the notion that the elderly are adventurous in many ways. I like the spunk and determination of the characters in this series, and I found myself laughing aloud at their antics. This book shows that retirement does not mean "out to pasture" and shows how valuable the elderly are (to those that, unfortunately, need a reminder!). This was a delightful look at a feisty group of retirement residents that work together to help the police solve a murder. The characters grow with each book in the series and this book was a great addition to the first three. Great for all ages! The first book in this series is "The J Alfred Prufrock Murders". Enjoy!

An easy read,

This review is from: Peanut Butter Murders: (Center Point Premier Mystery (Large Print)) (Library Binding)
This series is set in a retirement center and features feisty senior citizens who are a long way from sedentary! It's not for those who want a challenging puzzle, but it's a quick and easy read with enjoyable characters that you will have fun getting to know.
