Is There Danger in the Neighborhood?
Martha Rose’s efforts on her first granddaughter’s quilt is interrupted by her neighbor Sonia’s new foster daughter, Poppy. Poppy thinks something is wrong with Sonia, and Martha quickly confirms it. While Sonia recovers in the hospital, Martha gets to know Poppy better, and learns that Poppy’s parents were both killed a few months ago and the killer hasn’t been caught. Martha tries to get someone from Poppy’s family to give her a permanent home, but she also begins to wonder if Poppy knows more about her parents’ death than she realizes. Might she be in danger?

This is a unique premise for a mystery, and I enjoyed seeing how it unfolded. There was plenty going on here, and it kept me engaged the entire way through. Unfortunately, there is a pretty big why that is never explained, and another aspect of the ending felt a little needlessly harsh to me. It was great to see all the characters again and find out exactly what is going on with them, and the new characters were interesting as well. Fans new and old will be kept turning pages with delight until they reach the end.
