Description:
Lindy Sutton has her hands full. In between having her clown act clobbered by pint-sized critics, keeping a group of sex-crazed octogenarians from starting brawls in the raciest bar in town, and trying to keep her crazy Aunt Pip from being tossed out of Laughing Pines retirement home, she still has to contend with her son’s garish band bus parked in her driveway. Could things get any worse? Yup! Margaret Quaid, the social worker at Laughing Pines is found dead of an apparent overdose and the drop dead handsome detective on the case, thinks she stole the drugs from the retirement home and was pretty active in the world of wife swapping to boot. Lindy’s temper soars, along with her long dormant hormones, as she sets out to clear Margaret’s name, find the murderer and make the sexy detective, Mike Grogan, eat crow. Aided and abetted by the aging, but flamboyant Chappy Lowton, her eccentric and sarcastic sister, her best friend Patty, and that hoard of sex-crazed geriatrics, Lindy wades into the world of swingers only to find that there are plenty of people with a motive to kill the social worker. Lindy’s antics and adventures will keep you fascinated and laughing until the very end.
Review:
I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.
Lynn C. Albrecht has a great sense of humor. Even though Dying for Sex is a murder mystery, it had a lot of laughs.
Most of the characters are quite entertaining. Lindy, the main character, has a lot on her plate but she takes it all in stride. Her Aunt Pip has dementia and is the terror of Laughing Pines, the residential care facility she’s living in. Then there’s Chappy who resides at Laughing Pines also and he decides to do a little investigating on his own to find out what’s going on with the administration. There are too many colorful characters to list but they make quite a cast and an enjoyable read.
Dying for Sex is a quick, fun read. I definitely recommend it.
