The Sleuth Sisters by Maggie Pill Book Summary

In this cozy mystery, the first of a series, middle-aged sisters Faye and Barb decide to open a detective agency in Allport, their small town in northern Lower Michigan. They agree that Retta, their baby sister, will NOT be included, since she tends to take over any organization she's part of. Sweetly but firmly, Retta will tell you what you should do, could do, and will do.
The agency does not take off, and Faye reconsiders the decision to leave Retta out, since as the widow of a slain state trooper, she's got contacts all over Michigan. Retta's only too willing to "help out" and immediately begins second-guessing their decisions, which leads to sparks between her and Barb.
The sisters finally get a decent case: finding a man who apparently murdered his wife years ago and has been on the run ever since. As they try to investigate what happened, they're opposed at every turn. Local cops doubt the "lady detectives," and most of the town is convinced Neil Brown killed his wife and brother-in-law in a fit of anger. The murder victims' father has no doubt Brown is guilty, and he's furious that anyone might take a different view.
Still, someone wants to keep the sisters from finding Brown and digging into what really happened the day he left Allport. As the sisters piece things together, the new police chief seems like a possible ally. The problem is that both Barb and Retta are attracted to him, and Retta seldom meets a man she can't get. Accepting defeat in that arena, Barb tries to concentrate on the case and proving Brown isn't guilty of murder. She succeeds, but it means she must face a desperate killer in a remote, dangerous spot. Only Faye and Retta can save her, and they have no idea where she is.
Family humor--particularly the close-but-oh-so-different status of sisters, plays a big role in this murder mystery. Each sister has strengths and foibles. Barb, intelligent and composed, sneaks around town at night, correcting the spelling and grammatical errors on signs that drive her bonkers. Faye, kind-hearted but insecure, can't see herself as the capable person she is. And Retta? Retta knows she's attractive and clever. She's only trying to help when she tells you exactly what you should do with your life--or your detective agency.

Cute cozy mystery. Enjoyable read with peculiar family dynamic Interesting Gillian twist

Sleuth Sisters. Good quick read, looking forward to other books by Maggie Pill.

Likable detective story. This is a story about 3 middle aged sisters, family relationships and hurts, and murder. I totally enjoyed this romp through small-town life, changing careers and circumstances, and meeting the challenges along the way. This isn’t a blockbuster crime novel, but it has its moments. I’m waiting for the next book to see if Barb and the police chief can survive her criminal past. The sister’s disagreements sound familiar, but in the end they’ve got each other’s backs. An enjoyable, easy read that keeps you wondering who the murderer was.

The Sleuth Sisters by Maggie Pill. Very enjoyable read. Mystery, humor, romance and no vulgarity or graphic violence. Light and fun. Thank you!

The Sleuth Sisters. I really enjoyed reading this first book of the Sleuth Sisters series! It was very well written and the characters were quirky and relatable. It was fun trying to put together all the little clues to solve the mystery while watching the backstory of the sisters relationship dynamics unfold. Two thumbs up!

Sleuth sisters. Great suspense! Good read!

The Sleuth Sisters. I loved this book, very entertaining. Thanks

So much fun. Loved all of it.

Didn’t want it to end. This was a great read, full of mysteries at every turn. I look forward to the next one. I absolutely loved the sisters and how the author was able to find a way to connect the ”sibling relationships”’to the reader. Not sure if that was the intention but I surely connected to it.

Fresh!. I love how the sister get to tell the story in their own chapters. Great idea. I look forward to reading more of the sisters series. The author is really great.

The Sleuth Sisters. Couldn’t wait to finish. Kept me guessing.

The Sleuth Sisters. This was my first book about the sisters, since I am a sister I loved how their relationships intertwined into the story. Love the characters and enjoyed the plot!

Never a dull moment!. Very well written... I really enjoyed this mystery, and highly recommend it to others.
