Reseña del libro "The Last Number Called (The Mabel Pennybone Mysteries) (en Inglés)"
At eighty years old, Mabel Pennybone has earned the right to mind everybody’s business. Unfortunately, somebody in Caudle has committed murder. In the charming small town of Caudle, Florida, Thursday night bingo is practically sacred. The numbers are called, the gossip flows, and everyone knows exactly where they’re supposed to sit. But when Clara Whitcomb begins asking uncomfortable questions about missing charitable donations, an ordinary bingo night takes a deadly turn. Clara disappears during the games and is later found murdered in a locked back room. For Mabel Pennybone, losing a longtime friend is bad enough. Watching suspicion tear through the community she loves is something else entirely. Armed with a sharp eye for overlooked details, decades of local knowledge, and an impressive inability to leave well enough alone, Mabel begins asking questions of her own. Between managing her hardware store from a comfortable distance, navigating the opinions of her equally determined friends, and carrying on one-sided arguments with her spoiled cat, Mr. Tinkles, she has plenty to keep her occupied. But someone in Caudle is hiding a terrible secret, and the closer Mabel comes to discovering it, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because in a town where everybody knows everybody, the person you trust most might be the one with the most to hide. Warm, witty, and filled with small-town charm, The Last Number Called is the first book in The Mabel Pennybone Mysteries. Perfect for readers who enjoy clever amateur sleuths, colorful characters, gentle humor, and satisfying mysteries without graphic violence. A complete, standalone cozy mystery with no cliffhanger.
