The Mystery Continues...
7 of 7 people found this review helpful.
Martha Grimes tale of mystery and history continues from "The Hotel Paradise". 12 year old Emma is determined to solve the mystery of the a murder in her sleepy town, even if it means going up against her friend Sam, the sheriff. Martha Grimes magic continues to shine on the trials and travails of Emma and those around her. Emma is a likeable heroine; although feeling like an underdog she doesn't let that stand in the way of doing what she feels is right. The characters and background are rich, amusing, and colorful, and make for a delightful read. Those enamored of Grimes' Richard Jury series will enjoy the trifecta of Hotel Paradise, Cold Flat Junction, and Belle Ruin. These are must-haves in any library to be enjoyed over and over again.
