Reviews
When Besty's friend Doris returns from a trip to Thailand she comes bearing gifts not only for the Monday bunch but she also brings back a rare Buddha for an antique dealer. When the dealer and close friends of Doris start turning up dead Besty is once again called upon to solve the mystery.This installment was lacking in the closeness that usually goes on between the main characters which is what I enjoy about this series. Instead we spend time with people we don't know and do not really get to know. Also the plot is easy to figure out early in the book.Not one of the best but still good for a cozy mystery.
