A Case of Crooked Letters — Lori Copeland

Just when things are settling back to normal in the sleepy town of Morning Shade, a series of chain letters throws the townspeople into a tizzy. Who is trying to bilk little old ladies out of their money with promises of good health and untold millions?

Okay, so maybe Stella Diamond had something to do with it. But now someone else has taken up where she left off, and Stella is determined to solve the case. What starts out as a simple chain letter can turn into full-fledged mail fraud, and someone in town is to blame.

Meanwhile Maude is busy fulfilling another book contract and dreaming of the day her financial woes will be solved. .. .

Chain letters, mail fraud, the town prankster, and a house full of animals combine to make one chain of events that just might drive the Diamond women over the brink.
