Fool me once

Maggie Gordon

Yeah, more Alanis McLachan and her odd life :) Last book, we learned all about Alanis' childhood with her con artist mom, and then the aftereffects of her mom's subsequent murder. Poor Alanis is still dealing with the fallout of mom's choices, and her attempts to help Marsha, one of the women her mother conned, might not be going the way that she planned. Marsha is arrested for murdering her husband, and Alanis needs to prove her new friend's innocence! Fool Me Once is a fun romp. Not too hard to figure out, but I'm never too fussed about being surprised with mysteries. The tarot addition continues to add a nice flash of difference and nuance to these books as well.
