Half asleep with boredom, Millie perks up to a news report that her local jeweler has been murdered in what appears to be a botched robbery. In her bumbling way as she insists to Detective Marx that you catch more lies with honey, she digs deep to try to put the killer to justice and finds that there are more suspects with motives than she could imagine. As the plot thickens, and Millie crosses lines, she starts to wonder if she's in danger. When it comes down to the wire, will Millie escape a desperate situation, and will she decide maybe sleuthing isn't as important as being with her small family of felines?

This book is my step back in time to my years growing up in East St. Louis, fondly nicknamed, "Friendlyville." I left this town years ago, but my mind always drifts back to this place of contentment and laughter, family and friends. What better way to reminisce than through the eyes of a child. Thank you Friendlyville, for the memories. -Nancy Wessel
