"This book features female-sleuth Lucy Stone and is set in October. There is an arsonist loose in the small Maine town of Tinker’s Cove and the book follows Lucy’s efforts to catch him or her.
I like the way the Halloween theme was used in the book. There was a lot of emphasis given to Lucy caring for her baby and of her trying to find the time to do everything she needs to do in her busy life. I felt there could have been more emphasis on the mystery part of the story.
"Fun quick read. Lucy Stone, mother of 4, does amateur sleuthing in a small Maine town. This time a series of arsons takes place while Lucy is busy nursing her new baby, but not too busy for crime fighting! A fun book and you gotta love the small Maine town."
"This is the 3rd book in the Lucy Stone series by Leslie Meier. This was pretty good but I will say "shame on you, Leslie Meier" for writing a scene where the protagonist, Lucy, who is a nursing mother is injured and ends up in the hospital. She is given perscription pain pills and goes home and nurses her baby daughter. Then it says that the baby is fast asleep. Well, duh. You just gave this child whatever pain medicine you took. I know that might be nit picking but really what a stupid thing to write.
Overall though, the book was good. The characters are believable. The story line was interesting and although you would think that the book is Halloween oriented the main story is about an arsonist burning down historic buildings in the town and outskirts. Arson turns to murder when someone dies in one of the fires. The identity of the arsonist kept me guessing until revealed."
