Summary

Film lover Barbara Marr is a typical suburban mom living the typical suburban life in her sleepy little town of Rustic Woods, Virginia. Typical, that is until she sets out to find the missing link between a bizarre monkey sighting in her yard and the bone chilling middle-of-the-night fright fest at the strangely vacant house next door. When Barb talks her two friends into some seemingly innocent Charlie's Angels-like sleuthing, they stumble upon way more than they bargained for and uncover a piece of neighborhood history that certain people would kill to keep on the cutting room floor.

A barrel of laughs

Any additional comments?

After buying the book I just had to buy the audiobook too. As I find the I will read a book just once but with an audiobook I will listen to the story again and again. This book just hit all the right buttons for me so I just had to buy it.

Very funny story and lovely characters that find themselves in lots of trouble and mayhem. You would think running a house with three growing girls in would be a handful all by its self but no. When Barbara hears noises in the house next door she just has to investigate and its not long before she finds herself facing monkeys in her tree and dead bodies. With the help of her best friends, hunky cops, mother's and the FBI she finds staying safe is hard work.
I will definitely be getting the next book in the series.

enjoyed every page

the story and build up keeps you listening wondering what's next. The narration was excellent and portrayed the characters perfectly. It also had me laughing out loud. The book is a real gem
