What could purple cows and
elderly spies possibly have to do with each other?
When young Mikey Cross discovers
ceramic purple cows, a ring, and investigative notes left by a mystery writer
popular in the 1950s, his parents’ and grandparents’ lives are turned upside
down.
Pamela and Chris Cross become
involved in vintage intrigue with trepidation and more than a little angst when
they find out there’s an elderly assassin on the prowl and the situation isn’t
quite as vintage as they thought.

How Now Purple Cow was a great read with fun characters and an interesting mystery for them to solve. Loved it.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Evelyn! It was actually fun to write. The characters made it so.
DeletePat, Thank you for featuring How Now Purple Cow! The characters and storyline were so much fun to work with. : )
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure, Marja! It was a fun book to read too!
DeleteI am looking forward to reading this one :-) Once I finish reading the rest of the books in Sandi Webster Mystery Series, that is...! I have only read The Bogey Man so far. And not only did I enjoy it ...but it also introduced Chris and Pam ...who I believe are the main protagonists of this series ...and that made me interested to read the books in the Bogey Man Mystery Series as well...!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ramla! The Bogey Man mysteries are a little cozier than the Sandi Webster series. Yes, Chris and Pam are the main characters in the second series.
DeleteI have on my Kindle--haven't started yet though. I want a day when I can just read! Looking forward, Marja. You know I love your books!

Thank you, Madeline! And I'm watching for your next book. If you're like me, you've got too many books and not enough time. : )
DeleteI'm starting jury duty tomorrow and needed a good recommendation for entertaining reading material. Thanks, and thanks, Patricia, for hosting!

LOL I hope it entertains you, Carole. I got called for jury duty recently and thankfully I wasn't chosen. I say thankfully because it was an ugly, violent case.
