Impoverished heiress, Nora Blackbird and her sisters, the horse crazy recovering alcoholic, Emma and the estrogen driven earth mother, Libby, are back for another snoop among the snooty. This time, Nora takes it upon herself to find out if America's Sweetheart actress, Sweet Penny Devine (a sort of Shirley Templesque figure) is REALLY dead this time. Seems Sweet Penny has a thing for disappearing and then reappearing at just the right time...for example, at her funeral. Just for kicks mind you.
Weaved within the mystery is the romance between Nora and mobster son Michael "Mick" Abruzzo, the terrifying antics of Libby's twin
The mystery was solved rather easily...but when aren't they? *G* The ending of the book was gaspingly shocking and the epilogue left you hanging until the very very very end.
This sixth volume of the Blackbird Sisters mysteries is a great, fun, fluffy quick read. It's not the best in the series so I'll be giving it 3.5 berries out of 5.
