My thoughts on 4 Quick Fiona Quinn Mysteries
I adore books by C.S. McDonald, especially her Fiona Quinn tales.
Each of these short stories features a mystery for Fiona to solve. As usual, when Fiona is on the job, hilarity ensues.
If you need a quick laugh or are in the mood for a light-hearted mystery but don’t have much time to invest in reading, these 4 books are perfect for you. These are all four fun, fast, cozy mysteries that are suitable for ages Tween & up.
Banking on a Murder involves finding a missing friend who works at the bank. Has her ex-husband done something nefarious or is there a solution more fitting for a Fiona Quinn tale? I bet you know the answer.
Harriet’s Heist is set in Florida where Fiona hopes for a little R & R while visiting her parents. The first thing she notices is that every woman is covered in jewels. When they explain there has been a rash of jewelry theft and Fiona’s mother has promised them the crack amateur sleuth, Fiona will solve the case, her simple vacation is gone. Will her Maltese, Harriet be the hero in this case?
Crystal Clear Confusion revolves around a recurring nightmare Kindergarten teacher, Fiona is having about being chased by a lion at her school. If dreams can come true, Fiona hopes the same reasoning does not apply to nightmares. Fiona even turns to her neighbor and her crystal ball to solve this mystery.
The Christmas Cameo is like watching a 45-minute Hallmark movie. Can Fiona solve the decades-old mystery of a cameo found at her late uncle’s house? Will Detective Landry be bested by a pick-pocketing Santa? This book is packed with humor and a happy ending.
I received copies of these books for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.
