Agnes Sharp and the Trip of a Lifetime (Miss Sharp Investigates)
Agnes and her friends are the elderly residents of Sunset Hall, and each of them has grown bored. So when Edwina wins a trip to a coastal hotel, each of them jumps at the chance to get away. The fun quickly dissipates when Agnes witnesses what she believes is a murder when only one hooded figure returns from the cliffs. She turns to her friends for help and soon it becomes clear that a killer is lurking just as a storm keeps them trapped at the hotel.
The mystery shines thanks to the delightful protagonist of Agnes who brings a sense of joy into every page. She and her friends have the best banter and encompass friendship goals as these retirees confide in each other, solve mysteries, and even get into a little bit of trouble. The vacation takes them to a fun location which at times makes the mystery eerie thanks to the isolated feeling of the hotel. This adds suspense to the tone that generally stays lighthearted through Agnes’ personality and her dynamic with her friends. Agnes Sharp and the Trip of a Lifetime is a fun-filled mystery that is highly recommended with the perfect blend of humor, murder, suspense, and friendship.
