Sandra Kay Vosburgh

I've just discovered a new-to-me author with a new mystery series, and I couldn't be happier. Scandal at Stonecroft is the first book in the Sackets Harbor Mysteries series and I look forward to reading more adventures of Ada Whittaker, her secretary Gwen, and the other residents of Sackets Harbor. Author Sandra Kay Vosburgh has created a cast of characters who could be found in any small town, but a scandal that occurred twenty years ago threatens their peaceful existence. Will a letter written to Ada, who is also known as advice columnist Adrienne, offer the clues needed to solve the mystery? Will a twenty-year-old crime finally be solved?

Ada Whittaker is a unique character. I admired her commonsense approach to approaching the clues and developments in this case and I enjoyed her humorous interaction with her quirky secretary Gwen. I'm not sure how many of the supporting characters in this story will be present in the upcoming book that is scheduled for release in June 2022, but I'm eager to find out. If you enjoy likable characters, a plot with twists and turns to keep you guessing, and a strong faith element woven into an intriguing story, look no further. Scandal at Stonecroft is a delightful cozy mystery that you don't want to miss!

I voluntarily accepted a digital copy of this book from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.… (altro)

Foolish risks are not healthy challenges. At least that would seem to be the best mantra to follow, or so Gwen would suggest to her employer, Adrienne, the advice columnist. Was Adrienne, better known as Ada, inclined to follow such advice?

Sackets Harbor, a small town, had at least one major tourist attraction - Stonecroft Resort. Only problem, there was an unsolved embezzlement that had occurred 20 years earlier. Two people disappeared at that time. Had they planned this together?

A mystery that will keep you guessing, this story with its many plot twists will keep your mind busy trying to figure out all the wonderful characters that make up this scandal. Will the truth finally make them free?
