A Bad Day for Pretty

A Bad Day for Pretty/Sophie Littlefield 292 pgs.

Stella Hardesty is back! Six months after the end of the last book, Stella is recovering just fine from her last big adventure. Some good doctors and physical therapists put her back on track and she is ready to get back to business. Instead of her usual "jobs" she is out this time trying to prove a friend innocent. When a tornado pulls up a shack at the fairground and you find a body beneath, it is hard to be the guy who poured the foundation and act like you don't know anything about it. Stella is, as usual, creative in her "detecting" and solving of these mysteries. Also, her relationship with Goat looks like it is going somewhere...right before his ex-wife shows up and seems to make a play for his attention. Still love this character and the Missouri setting is fun to read too. - Christa
