SUSPENSE MAGAZINE REVIEW
OF MOLDED 4 MURDER by J. C. Eaton, October 2019
This is #5 in the
fantastically fun (with great covers) Sophie Kimball Mystery series. Yet again,
readers get to enjoy hanging out with Sophie “Phee” Kimball, who still enjoys
her job as bookkeeper for a private investigator. The only thing that’s really
disturbing her now is the trouble her mother, Harriet, is having at her
retirement community in Arizona, called Sun City West. Instead of what most
retirees do there, like enjoy the sun, swim, play cards, etc., Harriet has a
penchant for starting up relationships with retirees who, oddly enough, are
dying before their time.
Her track record is not
changing a bit. This time her romance choice is Quentin Dussler. A
well-respected man, high-up in the Sun City West sculpting club, Quentin is
found dead. The only clue left behind was a piece of paper clutched in his hand
with Harriet’s name written on it.
Absolutely convinced
that assassins are out to get her, Harriet pulls Phee to her side and begs her
to find out what the heck is going on. What Phee isn’t ready for, however, is
the fact that a very intelligent, well-planned game is being played at Sun City
West that only a brilliant murderer could conceive.
Filled with clues that
make you go “huh?” and a list of potential subjects that range from the charming
to the witty to the intense, readers root for Phee as she goes up against a
killer who may not stop until Phee is taken out well before her time. Enjoy
this, once again, laugh-out-loud funny mystery that will make you scream for
the author to get busy on Book #6.
