by Rita Moreau
GENRE: Cozy Mystery
PUBLICATION DATE: 03/13/2024
DESCRIPTION:
A feisty 60-something woman and a spirited spirit solve a murder.
After a cross-country trip driving an F-150 and hauling a vintage camper Mabel Gold has proven to herself—and her doubting kids—that she still has it in her. Brooklyn smarts? Or, perhaps, after transplanting herself to Florida, it’s just sheer wacky-ness. But that’s what she needed when she left her two-timing husband.
Back in Florida, Mabel settles down in her cozy pink bungalow where she can take a break from helping her new pal—Irma. To some people, the former long-legged Las Vegas showgirl might be a ghost. For Mabel, she’s as real as real can be. It was Irma who got Mabel involved in solving murders across the country.
Mabel has drawn the line. It was a long summer trying to help Irma do enough good deeds to get her promoted from purgatory to heaven. But Irma’s discovered a new murder. This one might do the trick.

REVIEWS:
"I had a chance to read Bribing Saint Anthony on a recent flight. It was a great read! I don't have a lot of time to read for fun these days, and your story was a treat. You have a nice touch, and MC is an engaging lead. Reminded me a bit of Carl Hiaasen--What is it about Florida, anyway?!? Keep up the good work!" --Sheldon Siegel author of the critically acclaimed legal thriller series featuring Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez.
5.0 out of 5 stars. "Anything but snakes. All the characters are funny and kind of odd funny. Keeps me wanting to finish and get to the next one. Of course I love Irma and her wardrobe!" - Amazon review
5.0 out of 5 stars. More Fun with Mabel and Irma. These books are hilarious. I laugh the entire time I'm reading it." - Amazon review
