Hello, My favorite is a book a read some years ago. It is "The Cape Cod Caper" by Margot Arnold. Penelope Spring is invited to investigate a murder by her ex-flame, Zeb Grange. By the time she arrives, Zeb is in a coma. Then, another murder happens. I love mysteries. Thanks, Cindi

Oddly, I am currently reading Back Bay by William Martin. I'm not very far into it yet, but I know I'll be finishing it very soon. It's about the Pratt family and is told in flashbacks, back to Paul Revere. Very gripping story so far. Hope the rest of it lives up to the beginning!
