Book Description:Now that Geraldine Porter is retired, she's got time to devote to her favorite craft and her precocious granddaughter, Madison. You'd think a world of shoe-box-sized high school hallways would be trouble free. But Gerry's problems are anything but tiny...
When bookish Rosie Norman asks Gerry to accompany her to her thirtieth high school reunion, Gerry looks forward to seeing her old students. Rosie, however, has only one classmate in mind: star athlete David Bridges. Bearing a miniature replica of the bank of lockers where David once kissed her, Rosie has pinned her hopes on romance.
The tiny corridor, however, becomes a giant clue when David is murdered—a clue that leads Gerry down a path of thirty-year-old alliances, betrayals, and grudges. Now with the help of her granddaughter, Gerry must employ all her skills to reconstruct the true scene of the crime...
My Review:
I won this book as part of a contest in Dollhouse Miniatures magazine. It was an enjoyable mystery and a cute story. I'm not really into modern-day stuff, so it wouldn't have been my first choice, but it was well-written and fast-paced with plenty of plot twists. The interaction between the main character and her granddaughter was charming. This is not the first book in the series, and if I had read the earlier books first, I might have had more of a sense of who all the characters were, although they were sufficiently explained for the story to be complete.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes murder mysteries (without tons of gore and details—this is definitely a G-rated book) and/or anyone who likes miniatures.
