Synopsis

There's nothing unusual about a ham operator contacting other radio enthusiasts. Unless he's been dead for five years. When Harrie McKinsey and Ginger Vaughn—who have been described as the Lucy Ricardo and Ethyl Mertz of murder mystery—decide to study for their ham radio licenses, they get pulled into this mystery and find a trail leading to a long-lost treasure somewhere in New Mexico. Before it's over, there's another murder, an abduction, and a showdown with an aging Mafia don who values treasure more than human life. Harrie, Ginger, and their merry band of FBI, APD, and private detectives have to be on their toes to prevent another murder and save a family.

About Patricia Smith Wood

Patricia Smith Wood was an only child for most of her young years and entertained herself and others making up stories and putting on plays. Law enforcement is in her DNA. Her father served as a police officer and completed a distinguished career with the FBI as deputy assistant director for domestic intelligence. Even she became an FBI employee for a brief period. But, alas, a career in law enforcement proved impractical in the real world. She did graduate from the FBI Citizens Academy in 2009. Her career experiences include being an executive assistant in hospital administration, managing the telecommunications network in a large company, bank security operations, and computer technology. She became president of her own computer company in 1991, and she and her husband ran it together until they sold it in late 2006. Since then she's devoted most of her time to writing mysteries.

I thought I would enjoy this book. Set in New Mexico, a murder mystery. Was it my mood? Was it the story? Was it the writing? Don't know. The premise was interesting. The story not so much. Too focused on the reluctance of the characters to be amateur sleuths and their personal lives to focus on the......more
