Pre-Publication Club Death and the Walking Stick by Linda Berry Buy book: $23.36
When Althea Boatright dies alone in her locked room, it looks like the natural death of a sickly old woman, but one of her friends thinks there’s something suspicious about it., based on Althea’s walking stick.
I like the style of writing of this author. I am interested in the story, but I am wondering if Althea is ever actually going to "kick the bucket" any time soon. At least by the end of tomorrows read?
I'm having trouble following all the characters - less than 3 chapters & at least 20 characters for whom to account. While the story is cute & fun, I can't be expected to introduce me to the entire town (with psycho-social history) at once.
