Darcy Campbell, in The Cemetery Club, was caught up in more than one perilous situation. Such was the time she and Flora found themselves between two killers and a very dark cave.
Would we suddenly step off into a bottomless pit and disappear forever? Silently, I prayed that God would guide us. What a time to remember stories of rattlesnake dens hidden far underground. My shivering shot into high gear. Memories of teenage tales told at slumber parties or around a campfire crept up on me and I could not dispel them. Stories of unexplained lights flickering near old graveyards, of strangers who mysteriously disappeared, of eerie nighttime noises–these fears not only knocked on my mind’s door, they moved in and took up residence. — The Cemetery Club, Chapter 24, Page 152.
A case of the shivers is what I look for in a cozy mystery. I like page turners, a story line that keeps me wondering what’s going to happen next and a conclusion that lets me draw a long breath and relax after a satisfying ending.
