This review is from: Getting Old is a Disaster (Mass Market Paperback)
I liked it but I won't buy another one. This book lacks a little suspence and something that keeps your riveted to the book kind of...

Very Enjoyable,
By Kristi Ahlers - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Getting Old is a Disaster (Mass Market Paperback)
Gaddy Gold is back in her fifth mystery!Gaddy is a self-proclaimed P.I. and her world is turned into chaos when a hurricane hits Lanai Garden Apartments and with the passing of the storm, comes a new mystery for her and her gals. A skeleton has been discovered and there is not many clues but there is enough to know that this dead person has been murdered. To add to the excitement she has been challenged by the "Grandpa Bandit." Daring her to catch him if she can. Well, Gaddy is not going to let that challenge pass but first her and her girls are going to have to stay a few steps ahead of a murder that is not thrilled to find out a skeleton has been unearthed. This killer will do what he must in order to make sure it's dead and buried and if Gaddy gets in the way she may just find herself keeping company with the dead herself. This is the first time I've read any of Ms. Lakin's titles and I was immensely entertained with the witty actions of Gaddy and her cohorts. If you like a few laughs along with very likeable characters, and edge of your seat mystery, you're going to really enjoy this title. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful

spunky senior citizens sleuths,
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Getting Old is a Disaster (Mass Market Paperback)
It is finally official, Gladdy and Jack are a couple. Both live in the Lanai Gardens condominium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida where she and her four friends run a private detective business and he is a former detective who enjoys his retirement. Both want to consummate their love, but each time they try, a crisis surfaces; somebody needs her or a case arises. Jack rents a room in the Keys as a getaway, but alas they are interrupted again this time by a hurricaneThey return home as Jack's building has collapsed. Meanwhile Gladdy and her crew are trying to locate a bank robber who has taunted them. He even tells them which bank he will rob; when it occurs as described Gladdy and her intrepid geriatric sleuths set up a plan to catch a thief. A skeleton is found in the subbasement of Jack's demolished building; the builder Stanley Heyer asks Gladdy to identify the body. This fifty year old cold case has roots in Nazi Germany but pose modern day danger to the detectives. In her fifth mystery, Gladdy and her peers prove there is plenty of life in septuagenarians as they team is up to the challenge of the bank robber and a cold killer. There are the two mysteries in this latest "Getting Old" tale with both complex and not easy to determine who the culprits are. However, as always in Rita Lakin's homage to the elderly, it is the cast especially Gladdy who make for a spunky sensational senior citizens sleuthing series.
