My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Doreen goes to the consignment store to find out if Wendy has any money for her only to find her being strong-armed by two strangers. Determined to get to the bottom of it to ensure her potential income from now, Doreen has a very convoluted tale to dig into involving Bernard who is an eccentric older man who had a younger fiancee, they broke up in a public way and the resulting theft of the large sparkling ring he gave her. Obviously, Doreen's beau Corporal Mack Moreau is not happy with her new male friend who definitely has the money to keep her in the way she was used to thanks to her soon to be ex-husband, although at least she is staying out of his own cases. The problem is that she always finds trouble without any effort although this time she has befriended a Kelowna icon behind Wendy's store who is known for her quince jams and jellies. Can Doreen be the one to get the reward by solving the theft and how it involves Wendy and the jam icon?
I really enjoyed this story which was a nice change from the usual style of mystery that Doreen solves. It was great to see that Doreen was able to be more comfortable with the situation with Mack but she really needs to move on from waiting for a finalised divorce! I loved the story and how it involved the quince jam icon lady in the solution to that. It was also interesting to learn a bit more about Wendy and Kelowna. It was easy to be transported into the story and to feel and feel the thoughts and emotions of the people involved in this story. I can't wait to read what is going to happen next.
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
