Excellent
8. Oktober 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
It's been quite a while since I've read such a satisfying mystery. Nowadays I'm demanding more of them than just a puzzle with a dead body, and "The Gourdmother" delivers. Lili Martino, feeling her way in a new environment, remains steadfastly herself--loyal, generous and darn-near fearless. The tragedy of her best friend's husband's death spurs Lili into relationships and situations that uncover not only the mystery, but also Lili herself.
"The Gourdmother" is the perfect blend of characters and plot--and a riveting mystery as well. It's hard for me to believe that this is Maggie Bruce's first book. I'll certainly look for more from this talented author.

Enjoyable, but put-off
20. November 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
I really am enjoying the story line and characters of this book but am totally put-off by the absense of some of the prepositions and articles of normal writing. Is it the author or the proofers? I don't like having to inject words myself as I read. It breaks my concentration. Is the author a real person or is this a computer-generated story? I'm kind of put-off by all the "anonymous and pseudonym-type" authors today. Publishers, please proof-read and maybe you'll have a great series.

fine amateur sleuth who-done-it
7. September 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
Former long time Brooklyn resident Lili Marion wonders how a city gal can be street smart when she lives in a place without streets when she earned the cottage as remittance from Tom Ford for developing a mutual fund perspective. Besides her philosophical musings, she enjoys living in Walden Corners, New York though most of the residents remain leery of a city slicker. She makes friends with Nora Johnson and likes the open space for her to convert gourds into works of art or useful pretty functions.
On the first day of hunting season, someone kills Nora's husband Coach. Lili fears she heard the scream of death, which she originally assumed was a nightmare. As she gathers her wits about her, Lili decides to investigate the homicide of the spouse of her only upstate friend not realizing she sets herself up as a prime target.
Though readers will question why Lili had to investigate the murder even with her best local pal involved and threatened, fans will appreciate this fine amateur sleuth who-done-it. Lili brings her Brooklynese into her inquiries that drive the local police crazy as she interferes in their investigation. Readers will appreciate this urban take no prisoner protagonist as she seeks to uncover the identity of the killer while providing the audience with a glimpse including making a pendant into the world of gourds.
