Aurora and Nick go on a stake-out.
11 October 2021
Aurora is finalizing settled in her new house and she has a brand new next door neighbor Nick Miller, psychology professor at Lawrenceton College where Ro's cousin Phillip has just started. Ro tries to be a good cousin, rescuing Philip from the school's cafeteria. Aida and Ro invite Philip out with his roommate Josh to celebrate his birthday...but he ends up being a no show, which sets Ro's suspicious mind to work.

Meanwhile spoiled rich kid, Clayton Harris, is arrested for vandalizing a statue on the college campus.

Ro and Nick have an adorable meet-cute at her library where he is picking up a book on home repair... "I have a problem, too many books not enough shelves. I don't suppose you can relate?"-Nick "My mother told you about my never ending quest for bookshelf space."-Ro "Or I have insight into the psychology of librarians?"-Nick Their banter is adorable and what in addition to the mysteries is keeping me in this series. (One of my three favorite of the hallmark mystery series along with Hannah Swensen's Murder she Baked and Mystery 101...I keep coming back for the great mysteries and wonderful healthy relationships.)

Philip and Josh are missing and Ro finds Tammy's body which seems to have been involved in a hit and run. They find money in Josh and a Philip's room. When it looks like Clayton may be involved, the wealthy family circles the wagon...or do they? It turns out Clayton has been kidnapped. Gather the Real Murders Club...this is quite the mystery and Nick Miller was one of the last people to speak to Tammy. It is personal for both Nick and Ro and this is the mystery that brings them together.

Great mystery and the start of a new chapter in the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries. This is a must see for cosy mystery fans.
