Leslie Meier

Meier's beloved sleuth, part-time reporter and mother of four Lucy Stone, investigates another intriguing murder in Tinker's Cove, Maine.

Mother's Day Murder

This is a middle of the road installment. It delves into technology and children responding to it, with Lucy tiling her daughter. I'm not sure how I feel about the focus shifting from Lucy actually investigating the casesame to Lucy investigating her children, with a case interweaving throughout the book. It does make a good study of her family life,but the murder really fell to the wayside in my mind. The number of incidents and the lack of time spent on each one was a little shocking.

Still, a fast read and one step closer to catching up to the series.
