LOVED IT! ( )
  cougargirl1967 | Mar 8, 2013 |
I really loved this book because it is notonly a cozy but it has talk of antiques and collectibles, which I also love. ( )

Good mystery. I like that this is set in Illinois. Skye Denison doesn't seem too far-fetched for a sleuth but of course this little itty-bitty town seems to have more than its share of murders. ( )

The quotes from forwarded emails weren't quite as obvious and distracting in this one, so I gave it an extra star. Plus, the heroine is starting to get interested in the police chief instead of the funeral director, so that's looking up a little. Somebody who doesn't get tons of forwarded emails & hasn't seen all the jokes before would probably be more amused by this series than I am. ( )

Book description
Yard sales  bring out the worst in people. Nobody knows this better than Scumble River school psychologist Skye Denison, organizer of the First Annual Route 66 Yard Sale. Neighborly folk get downright nasty, fighting over plastic knickknacks - even pulling rocking chairs right out from under little old ladies.

When her own mother creams a woman for suggesting her pies aren't the flakiest, and a battle of the sexes breaks out among her parents, best friends, and students. Skye knows things have gotten out of hand. But the worst is yet to come.
Skye's former summer-job boss, Cookie Caldwell, has just been found murdered. and although the sheriff suspects Skye did it, nobody knows for sure how this cookie will crumble...
