A Lovely Review in Gumshoe Review!

I am absolutely thrilled with the review that Gumshoe Review gave to my second Claire Hanover gift basket designer mystery, To Hell in a Handbasket! To read the full text, go to Gumshoe Review. Here's the last paragraph:

"How it all plays out makes for an engrossing and entertaining mystery that keeps you reading until the final page. Tightly plotted and very current, the story manages to keep you on the edge of your seat. Even though the physical violence is off screen, the tension comes from the potential danger to the characters you've met and come to be concerned about."
