Girl Detectives Just Wanna Have Fun: A Birdie Mealing Mystery by Philippa Kaye, Philippa Kaye

4.0

Although slower-paced than I normally like my books/mysteries, Girl Detective’s Just Wanna Have Fun is a good intro to the characters and book world, which is part of an upcoming series. Birdie Mealing is a determined 20-something devastated by the abduction of her uncle. He's a lawyer who was working on a case of missing money and an old bombing where the jailed perpetrator may just be innocent. Looking into those leads, Birdie and her friends cross paths with the young detective assigned to the case, who also happens to have a romantic history with Birdie. The plot is easy to follow and the ‘80s setting is sure to be a nostalgic trip for anyone who lived through that time.
