Book Description:
Raising Cane
Abigail Timberlake Washburn understands the antiques game is a gamble -- so she doesn't know what to expect when she wins the bidding for the contents of an old locker that has been sealed up for years. It's a delightful surprise when she discovers inside a collection of exquisite old walking sticks -- and a not-so-delightful one when she pulls out a decrepit gym bag containing . . . a human skull!
The last thing the diminutive South Carolina antiques dealer needs is to be suspected of foul play. So she grabs her chatty assistant (and future sister-in-law), C.J., and heads out to search for a killer they can stick it to. But this cane case will be no walk in the park -- with its arcane clues hinting at poaching, counterfeiting, smuggling . . . and homicide, of course. And when a fresh corpse turns up, things are about to get really sticky for Abby and her staff of one.

I'm a fan of the series, but this one left me wondering if Myers can carry Abby along via slapstick much longer? It seems there is a forthcoming adventure next year, which I'll be sure to read.

Sharon P. (Not as much action as some of Ms. Myers' earlier books but still a good mystery. Enough to keep me turning the pages!
Charleston, S.C., antiques dealer Abigail Timberlake bids on and wins the contents of an abandoned storage locker, thereby introducing a mystery, a murder, and lots of hilarious shenanigans. Nice addition to this cozy series.
This a Den of Antiquity Mystery. As usual, Tamar Meyers wrote another amusing mystery. Abigail Timberlake Washburn bids on a sealed locker and wins a collection of walking sticks and an old gym bag with a skull in it.
