From Booklist:
Getting around Rosedale after the recent rainstorm in 1923 is difficult for everyone since the streets are flooded, but it is even worse for Annabelle Blue. After purchasing supplies her father needs for repair work and flirting with her beau, Phil Gunderson, Annabelle is about to row back when she discovers something blocking her boat. It turns out to be the body of Mr. Calhoun, president of Rosedale Farmer’s and Rancher’s Bank. Annabelle has no intention of helping the police investigate Calhoun’s murder, since she promised both her mother and Phil that she would give up playing detective. But the police chief seems determined to pin the crime on Annabelle’s brother-in-law, Richard MacDougall, which means if the real killer is going to be found, it will be up to Annabelle to do so. Duncan excels at evoking the fascinating world of a small town in 1920s New Mexico, and the latest addition to her wryly humorous Annabelle Blue series is perfect for historical mystery readers who enjoy a dash of sweet romance with their crime solving. --John Charles
