The Unraveling of Violeta Bell C. R. Corwin

Praise for The Unraveling of Violeta Bell "Frothing with humor, Corwin"s narrative exhibits his sharp ability to depict human relationships." -Library Journal "Maddy, a sixtyish woman with a sharp tongue and a willful lack of interest in technology, is a welcome relief from the charming, pixyish heroes of so many cozies." -Booklist Newspaper librarian Maddy Sprowls never gives story ideas to the editors at The Hannawa Herald-Union. She prefers to stay in the newspaper "morgue" and do her job. Then one Saturday she sees four elderly women get out of a taxicab at a garage sale. She figures that those women must hire the cabby every week to drive them from garage sale to garage sale. And wouldn"t that make a great feature story for the paper? Monday morning she runs straight to the newsroom with her idea. Shortly after the story runs, one of the four women is murdered: retired antique dealer Violeta Bell. Maddy wants no part of the investigation, but before she knows it, she"s on another of her infamous snoopathons. And, good gravy, enjoying every minute. Violeta Bell is an enigma. She even claimed to be the Queen of Romania. Could it be true? C.R. Corwin was the author of three Morgue Mama mysteries: Morgue Mama: The Cross Kisses Back, Dig, and The Unraveling of Violeta Bell. Writing under his own name, Rob Levandowski, he was also the author of Going to Chicago, Serendipity Green, and Fresh Eggs. He died suddenly-and too soon-in 2008.
