Hideaway Hospital Murders
Book Excerpt
"Well, I am, Mom. Besides--you could keep me company."
"Looks like you have some very good company right here." Beverly smiled and winked at Greg.
"Come on, Mom, really. You don't need this big house. And it would be fun seeing you every day. We could have coffee together every morning. Watch some TV at night. We like a lot of the same shows."
"That might get old for you. And then what if you wanted to get married again?" She glanced at Greg.
"Mom!"
"I don't know, Cynthia."
"Just think about it."
"I'll think about it."
"Mrs. Sonora--I mean, Beverly, this is fantastic. Everything was delicious. Thank you so much."
"You're quite welcome."
"See, Mom--you could cook for me. That would be great. I know you love to cook. And you know I love to eat."
"I said I'll think about it."

The Marshall police were looking for the killer, but they had no evidence or witnesses. The case would go cold in a hurry.

What a mistake.
The bland main character of the first novel remains bland; his potentially interesting girlfriend becomes bland; and the plot is utterly ludicrous, owing not a little to the Aileen Wuornos story.
Dreadful. I didn't even finish this and will not be reading the rest in the series.
