Search - Missing Susan (Elizabeth MacPherson, Bk 6)

Everyone wants to kill her, I did and she was just a character in a book :) Sharyn McCrumb's books make me laugh out loud and yet it still has a good mystery for you to figure out. I highly recommend all of her books!

This is a hilarious story - sort of a how-is-it-going-to-be-done instead of a who-dun-it.

Another solid book in her series. Fun adventures and mystery solving.

The unsinkable Elizabeth MacPherson is on tour, traveling with a charmingly gruesome caravan of Americans visiting England's most famous murder sites. The cantankerous and condescending guide, Rowan Rover, thinks he's shockproof - until a mild-mannered American businessman on his Jack the Ripper walk aska a small favor: since Rowan knows so much about murder, would he mind committing one, for a nice, fat fee? Surprised at himself, Rowan agrees to eliminate the unsuspecting Susan. It's not that he doesn't have misgivings; he does. But he's already cashed the check; he desperately needs the money, and, well, there are rules about gentlemen's agreements, aren't there? Enter Elizabeth MacPherson, canny observer and all-around murder spoiler. No would-be assassin needs her on his tail. But there she'll stay until the end of the tour or the completion of Rowan's mission - whichever comes first ...

According to the critics "Sharyn McCrumb, a beguiling wordsmith,s erves up a sprightly dish, seasoned liberally with humor and more than a dash of irony."

I love all Sharon McCrumb's stories, and her Elizabeth McPherson series is delightful, funny yet I would not consider them "light".
