Caught in the Snare
(2024)(Book 11 in the Mimi Goldman Chautauqua Murder Mystery series)
A novel by Deb Pines
Caught in the Snare is the eleventh book in Deb Pines' traditional whodunit Chautauqua Mysteries featuring the wise and witty reporter sleuth of a certain age Mimi Goldman.
"An Agatha Christie for the text-message age," IndieReader calls the series.
When Velma White, a former man-crazy heartbreaker now 74 and suffering from Parkinson’s disease, is found dead at the bottom of her Chautauqua home’s steep and slippery stairs, it looks like an accident.
Velma, after all, is shaky on her feet. But she also has a ton of enemies �� including her cash-strapped daughters, several secretive tenants, a bullied health-care aide and a bird lover she tangled with — who might have given her a deadly shove.
On the case, local snoops Mimi and Sylvia get frustrated when their suspect list grows. But when it starts to shrink, as suspects turn up dead, they’re terrified.
Has their luck finally run out? Or will Mimi and Sylvia, with the help of Sylvia’s new granddog Gerard, catch the killer before they find themselves also Caught in the Snare?
Fans of Agatha Christie, Louise Penny, Elly Griffiths and “Only Murders in the Building,” will enjoy the latest twist-filled mystery in this popular series.
