"Terror on Tuesday"

"Terror on Tuesday" is the second book in Ann Purser's Lois Meade mystery series.  Lois has moved her family to Long Farnden (the village that started her career as a house cleaner) and opened her own cleaning business called New Brooms.  Rather than doing all the cleaning herself she hires staff to assist her.  Detective Inspector Hunter Cowgill lets her know that he'd still like to enlist her help in his future cases -- something Lois isn't too keen on.  However, she gets pulled into his next two murder investigations after finding both bodies and discovering links to a friend as well as members of her staff.  Her family is put at risk again and her mother comes to stay to help out on the home front.  Although not quite as good (in my opinion) as the first book, it was worth the read and I'm looking forward to reading the third book in the series.  pazt
