Short description

Detective David White needs Sally's help to find his missing brother. Has David White disappeared deliberately? Or is skullduggery afoot? Her friends—and fellow amateur sleuths—George Thomas and Anne Carey, are only too happy to join in the investigation, and soon they find themselves far from home in a very precarious situation.    

Extended description

     Sally Nimitz is in the middle of a family crisis when a local police detective turns up at her front door.  David White and Sally are not strangers.  She was the delivery nurse when his wife had a baby, and he was in charge of the investigation of the murder of Sally’s neighbor, Amelia Marsh.  Now Detective White has a personal request.  Would Sally use the observation and deduction skills she displayed before to help find his missing brother? Has David White, a successful and respected widower, deliberately disappeared?
     Her friends—and fellow amateur sleuths—George Thomas and Anne Carey, are only too happy to once again give her a hand and soon, they find themselves far from home in a very precarious situation.

Review by: Ellen Politz on Feb. 07, 2013 : (no rating)
I very much enjoyed revisiting Sally Nimitz in her second mystery. I find her character very believable, and enjoyed guessing what really happened to Douglas White. I had a hard time putting it down. I look forward to the next book in the series.

Review by: Therese in Qld on Jan. 29, 2013 : (no rating)
Although I have enjoyed both Sally Nimitz mysteries, I find Sally's character so conservative that she makes Miss Marple look like a raging lunatic! I would find her too prissy & judgemental if I met her in real life.
Yet the story & all its twists are very enjoyable, and all the characters are described vividly. I'll buy the next one when it comes out.

I have read both the Nimitz Mysteries twice - this is good old fashined story telling and can be enjoyed for the characters and their responses as much for plot. top stuff and do hope there will be a followup before too long!

Review by: John Mann on July 03, 2012 :
Great sequel to the first book. I really like novels that don't feel it necessary to pander to the reader with sex and graphic violence and language. This was a fun read with it. Can't wait for the third in the series!
