ABOUT THE BOOK

After her mother dies from a heart attack, Sloane Templeton goes from Cyber Crimes Unit to bookstore owner before she can blink. She also "inherits" a half-batty store manager; a strange bunch of little old people from the neighborhood who meet at the store once a week, but never read books, called the Granny Oakleys Book Club; and Aunt Verline, who fancies herself an Iron Chef when in reality you need a cast iron stomach to partake of her culinary disasters. And with a group like this you should never ask, “What else can go wrong?”

A lot! Sloane begins to receive cyber threats. While Sloane uses her computer forensic skills to uncover the source of the threats, it is discovered someone is out to kill her. Can her life get more crazy?

My Thoughts:
CONGRATULATIONS Bonnie!!!!
This was a fun book! Sloane has one crazy life, filled with some crazy people. It has attitude and lots of sass! I have been reading lots of serious books lately and really needed a book that had some fun to it. This is one you've gotta read! I have an extra copy to giveaway. Leave a comment saying you're a follower of my blog, with an email address, and I will pull a winner on Saturday the 7th. Good luck!

A mystery set in the midst of a Granny club should be exciting! Haven't read a book by Bonnie for some time. Please enter me. Thank you.
