#CozyMystery Book #Review ~ Adventure, Abduction, & Arrest (Camper & Criminals #25) by Tonya Kappes #TonyaKappes @tonyakappes11


Welcome to Normal, Kentucky where nothing is normal!

When Hank Sharpe asked me in the laundry club ladies to join him in an undercover investigation to help find a missing person, me and ladies grabbed our sleuthing notebook without hesitation.

As undercover Forest Bathing Therapist trainees we were bound and determined to find out with happened to Kyra Tenney. When we did find her body in what appeared to be an accidental forest fire, we thought we were finished with our undercover act.

Only the coroner’s report came back that our missing person had been killed before the fire.

Put on your sleuthing caps and join Mae West along with the Laundry Club Ladies as they take their investigation skills to a whole ‘nuther level! Especially after Mae finds herself in the fire!

My Review and Rating:

Adventure, Abduction, & Arrest (A Camper & Criminals Cozy Mystery Series Book 25)Adventure, Abduction, & Arrest by Tonya Kappes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Adventure, Abduction, & Arrest is the 25th book in the Camper & Criminals series by Tonya Kappes. This book finds most of the gang out of town at a retreat to help Hank locate a missing person. Kyra Tenney left home to work on becoming a Forest Bathing Therapist. Kyra disappears after hiking through the forest near the retreat. When a smoldering body is discovered amid an accidental fire, the group thought it was case closed. That is until the coroner provides information about the body that opens the case wide open.

The author kept me guessing about who was responsible. There were several characters at the retreat who fill the bill, along with outside characters. The book was full of twists, turns, red herrings, and shifts in direction. The mystery would start out going one direction, then completely shift a new way. The suspense build-up was written well and intensified right until the very end.

As with the rest of the books in the series, the mystery isn't the only thing going on in the book. Tonya Kappes did a terrific job weaving the main storyline and several smaller ones together. The characters are wonderfully crafted, realistically written, and I feel like I'm coming home to Normal, or wherever the Laundry Club may be, with every book in the series.

I was provided a copy of this book to read.
