Her Brother’s Keeper
Perseverance Press, April 2013
Joan Spencer, the viola-playing protagonist of Frommer’s small-town Indiana mysteries, doesn’t look for trouble but it keeps finding her. A few days before her daughter’s wedding, the last thing Joan needs is something else to worry about-but here it is, ready or not. Her ex-con brother Dave was the family black sheep, but years have passed since they’ve heard from him. Always the nonconformist, he’s arrived way too early. Meanwhile Joan has to keep up with work, in addition to all the planning, even for a simple wedding; the groom’s mother disapproves of everyone and everything; and Joan’s own mother-in-law, whose mind is failing fast, lands smack in the middle of a murder…
“Her Brother’s Keeper is a charming, engrossing, family mystery-with Mozart. To be read with a mug of hot chocolate and marshmallows. What could be better?”
-Kerry Greenwood, author of the Phryne Fisher and Corinna Chapman mysteries
