Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Gr. 4-7. When her favorite older cousin, Nehemiah, is killed, Deuteronomy ("Duty") Devilrow, 12, returns to her small-town Texas home for the funeral. She has been living in Fort Worth and preparing for college with her tough, loving, white mentor, Miz Zan, a homicide detective. But there are questions that make Duty wonder if Nehemiah could have been murdered. With Miz Zan's support, Duty investigates and saves her family from killers. The detective work is contrived. The real mystery revolves around the young black sleuth's identity. Why is Duty the spitting image of white Senator Deveraux's oldest daughter? Frels' fiction debut will hold readers with its smart yet naive protagonist and its fast and funny first-person narrative. Hazel Rochman

5.0 out of 5 stars A great read!, June 15, 2005
This review is from: Simmering Secrets of Weeping Mary (A Deuteronomy Devilrow Mystery) (Paperback)
I bought this book for my niece, and ended up reading it myself. The author has such a way with words...she tells the story with vivid language and a clarity (not to mention humor) that compels the adult crowd as well as her young adult readers. Her unique voice and dynamic style make for a fast pace, and a thoroughly satisfying story. You'll love these characters, and this author. Treat yourself and your family to a great read...buy this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!!, May 6, 2005
This review is from: Simmering Secrets of Weeping Mary (A Deuteronomy Devilrow Mystery) (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book. Smart, sassy and filled to the brim with interesting details. It is a very fast paced read that will no doubt keep children and adults interested in Duty's escapades. I loved it so much I bought several copies for my sisters and their children. I can't wait until the sequels start coming!
