When Agnes Blythe's professor boyfriend dumps her, and she burns her bridges at her part-time library job by insulting Kathleen Todd, the chair of the historical society, her only option left is to help her great-aunt Effie salvage the condemned Stagecoach Inn. They only have one week to bring the electric up to code. Why the tight deadline? Kathleen had pushed for it. When Agnes and Effie find Kathleen dead at the inn, rumors fly that they killed her. However, Agnes is shrewd enough to realize the killer may have started the rumor. Aunt and niece dodge the cops in a stolen car, and their investigation uncovers lies and crimes. As bodies pile up, the unlikely sleuthing team's list of suspects narrows. Agnes and Effie are the most inept amateur sleuths since Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum and Lula.
VERDICT Chance (Teetotaled) kicks off a humorous cozy series marked by mesmerizing characters and laugh aloud high jinks, making this a fun romp.
