Ivy Malone is on the run in a motor home. She’s trying to hide out from some Mafia thugs who want revenge. She ends up in a small town in the middle of nowhere.

Ivy has done some sleuthing in the past, so when she stumbles across two dead bodies, she feels right at home looking in to it. Only problem is the police don’t think it was murder. They believe it is a murder/suicide. Ivy is not so sure.

Abilene, a hitchhiker that Ivy befriends, and Ivy end up working together to try to figure out who the killer is. Can they do so without putting themselves at risk?

You will laugh out loud with this LOL (little old lady)! I devoured this book in two days because I just couldn’t put it down. I wanted to find out what would happen next!

Ivy is such a fun LOL and Abilene is a great addition. I hope she’ll be in future books. I think these two characters worked well together, and with Ivy traveling, she needed a “sidekick.”

I hope there’ll be many more books in this series. I can’t wait to read the next one! I highly recommend this book and series.
