5.0

Revved Up 4 Murder by J.C. Eaton is a fun, fast-paced mystery with lots of hilarious moments and quite a few eye rolls. 

Will Sophie figure out what is going on before Wayne goes to jail for murder? 

The Book Club Ladies 
Harriett and her book club ladies are all doing well. They are all moving about and doing their recreational hobbies. Then, a hexed wooden doll is stolen from the local museum, and the ladies want to help find it. Of course, Sophie must assist them in the investigations. 

However, Sophie isn't moving fast enough for Harriett, so she and her sister decide to investigate the museum. 

I ended the call before my mother said another word. Then I stomped over to Augusta’s desk. “This will make your day! My mother and my aunt are locked in the art repository at the museum. When my aunt gets an idea, she’s like a bull moose in mating season and nothing will stop her.” 
J. C. Eaton. Revved Up 4 Murder (Kindle Locations 1208-1210). Kindle Edition. 

The Pinochle Guys 
Add to the missing doll, a member of the automotive garage club is found dead under Sally Stang, Wayne's 1965 Mustang that he is rebuilding at the club's garage. Now, Herb and the guys are all worried about Wayne. So, Harriett decides that Sophie has to find the culprit because they have this buy-sell-trade event coming up, and Jay Leno will be there. Harriet is one of the MCs. She will not allow this murder and the hexed doll to stop the event. 

The guys are ready to help the ladies find the people messing with the citizens of Sun City West. 

There are some crazy things to watch for: 
  • a crazy fishing trip
  • the dog park antics
  • a stakeout in a restroom
  • Steadman finds the decoy box in a shipping facility

Five Stars
I always look forward to a Sophie Kimball Mystery. The relationship that Sophie and Harriett have is fantastic. But the situations that the Book Club Ladies get Sophie into are hilarious. My rating for Revved Up 4 Murder by J.C. Eaton is five stars. I highly recommend Revved Up 4 Murder to all the cozy mystery readers.
 
I wanted to point out that the car on the cover is a Chevelle, not a Mustang. Someone, please tell the cover artist so they don't make a mistake like that again.
 
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Until the next time,
