This was a story that caught all of our attention.

There was mystery and intrigue, romance and faith, and a dog that seemed to have the ability to be everywhere helping everyone when he was needed. The old Jewish grandmother was someone to be reckoned with and life in a small town where everyone knows your business (funeral homes, beauty parlours) made this another good book to sit back and enjoy.

As usual we managed to have plenty of open discussion, good food, good drinks, plenty of laughter and a wonderful time was had by all.

This book club meeting was combined with a bbq, a pool party and a celebration of Joanne’s 50^th birthday.

Iris Johansen has written a number of adventure/mystery books and this one seemed to be well received by most of the group.  An easy book to read during summer vacation. People found the information on dolphins to be quite interesting.
