Dana has done it again, she can keep you in suspence and Ruth is a funny over the hill woman and she and her birds know everthing and everyone. But the toe was a mystery to her and her husband the cook. Those birds she keeps are a crazy bunch of misfits and I believe the whole town of Finny is also. There is always fog ane even a Fog Celebration for the town and people came from far and wide to it. The something shot up in the air and burned the hot air balloon and a man fell to this dealth so now they are trying to have a celebration with all this going on. But you will be surprised in the end who done it and it ended with a BANG. Dana is a VERY good writter to keep you guessing. I have read her blogs and websites and she is a great lady also.
A Mystery that will keep you guessing

The title will not give you any indication of what this book is about. So you will wonder. Dana does a good job keeping you guessing all the way through the book as to who done what. There are so many surprises from beginning to end. I was totally caught unawares by the ending. There is mystery, intrigue, inspiration, and daily events. About the time you think you know who is causing the crime in Finny Fog, you are thrown off guard again. A few times I felt sure I knew and in the end it wasn't. A well written book - not one you speed through. But one you want to sit and digest. With festivals in every town bringing in people from outside and my husband being a deputy there were many things I could relate to well. You learn about agriculture as well. Disemboided toe, man shot down out of balloon in air, people holding meeting in secret on the beach, worm farm, etc. are a few of the things you will find.
