I can\'t wait to spend more time with Mercy Rob Walker The Mercy Allcutt Mystery Series Lost Among the Angels Angels Flight Fallen Angels Angels of Mercy Thanksgiving Angels.
It is a fast-paced, exciting story and Mercy Allcutt is a terrific sleuth.
Highly recommended Detra Fitch (Huntress Reviews) I read Lost Among the Angels in one sitting and found it wonderful and so enjoyable.
This Book is headed directly to my KEEPER shelf.
Don\'t worry; you won\'t be lost.
The characters all dress the parts, all the way down to the bobbed hairstyle, and speak slang.
Each character has a unique personality.
Author Alice Duncan either did a lot of research or grew up on stories of the era.
I found myself immersed in the first few pages.
The story takes place in 1926, Los Angeles.
Patricia Browning This gem reminded me of the old Dick Tracy comic strips (that I avidly read as a child), as well as of the black and white PI movies we all recall with glee.
Not a bad way to end one day and start another.
I was still laughing when I turned out the light.
I laughed all through this Book and stayed up until 4:00 in the morning to finish it.
Mercy is a pip.
No vulgarity or explicit sex for those who appreciate a clean and wholesome read.
