Blanche on the Lam by Barbara Neely

4.0

---

Great, adventurous domestic mystery all told through the eyes and mind of Blanche, the main character. And Blanche is at once likeable, formidable, stubborn, changeable and determined to make a better way through life for herself and her sister's children. She doesn't necessarily want marriage, though there is a man who is seeking to have a place with her through the children.
