Mix-up In Miniature by Margaret Grace is the sixth book in the “Miniature” mystery series. Publisher: Perseverance Press, April 2012
Geraldine Porter is thrilled to meet bestselling
author and miniatures enthusiast Varena Young. The celebrity seems to seek
friendship with Gerry and her crafts group, and makes a generous offer of a
house from her collection for a library fund-raiser. But Young is suddenly
murdered, and Gerry is left to investigate the crime. She and her
eleven-year-old granddaughter Maddie delve for information on Young’s
mysterious past, and they find a clue to her murder in a secret room…of a
dollhouse.
When Gerry visits famed miniaturist and novelist Varena Young, she delights in being offered one of her miniature homes for a library fundraiser, which is later marred when Varena is found dead. While suspicions falls to Verna’s young protégé, Verna’s daughter seeks Gerry help in solving this murder. This was a fun read that I could not put down. This well-crafted mystery boasts a lovable cast and great conversations in this tale of betrayal and secrets. The loving relationship between Maddie and her grandmother continues to delight me as they look for clues in this puzzling case. This was very enjoyable and I hope to see more of Gerry and Maddie in this wonderfully charming series.
