A WWII era starlet, now a reclusive senior citizen, takes a room in Victoria’s Cedar Lodge boardinghouse in southern Missouri. Shortly after she arrives, a murder victim is discovered in a secret tunnel under the Pennington mansion Miss Aggie and her nephew are restoring.

In the second book in the Miss Aggie series, the Pennington legacy again provides a focal point for intrigue that span generations. The murder, the starlet’s murky past, and the questionable history of both the Pennington family and a charming elderly import/export dealer all come to play in this fun story.

Victoria, the young Christian amateur sleuth, struggles with her attraction to a mysterious stranger, while trying to keep her senior citizen tenants safe and out of trouble. She seeks guidance from her Heavenly Father in her relationship with local news reporter Benjamin, which is refreshing, and realistic for readers of faith.

The author Frances Devine presents the histories of the seniors with sensitivity. The consequences for their youthful mistakes reach all the way to the present. The characters are developed further in this second book in the series. The mystery is more solid, too.
