Trouble in Tawas: An Agnes Barton Senior Sleuths Mystery - Paperback

by Madison Johns (Author)

The last thing Agnes Barton expected was to be slapped in cuffs alongside her best friend, and fellow-sleuthing buddy, Eleanor Mason. All they had wanted to do was to verify if a painting at the Butler Mansion had indeed been stolen, but when the Mildred Winnefree's body was also discovered in the mansion by the cops, they rose to the top of the suspect list. It didn't help that they had entered the mansion illegally-using a key Agnes had pilfered from her daughter Martha who was working as a real estate agent to sell the old place. Word has it that a treasure map was hidden in the back of a painting at the Butler Mansion, and it was just too juicy a story not to investigate. So here Agnes and Eleanor sat in jail as prime suspects. It was obvious that with her nemesis death, she'd have her hands full trying to prove her innocence. The tabloid, Tall Tales, printed a treasure map its most recent addition and soon East Tawas became the focus of treasure hunters who began tearing up the town looking for treasure. Agnes and Eleanor joined in the foray, but she wondered just who was behind this tall tale and just what did it have to do with Mildred's murder.
