Yoga retreats are supposed to have bodies…just not dead ones. But when Eleanor, the owner of the retreat, turns up dead, Ronald and Gertie know just who to call. Eleanor’s sister, Mildred, is convinced Eleanor’s shady business partner had something to do with her death, but there’s no evidence to prove it.

To add more limitations to the mix, Carter is being audited by the state police due to complaints concerning his conduct, with specific claims that he’s feeding Fortune confidential information. Swamp Team 3 fully intend to help Mildred find out what happened to her sister, but they’ll have to fly below radar to avoid risking Carter’s position as sheriff.

How far can they bend?

Fortune and the team get involved with dodgy goings-on at a yoga retreat.

It’s wonderful how the author still comes up with surprises that make you laugh (usually involving Gertie). I’ve just listened to the whole series again, in preparation for this latest addition. The narration throughout is brilliant, bringing to life the eccentrics of Sinful and its adjuncts.

Convoluted crimes seasoned with laugh out loud ‘Gerties’

Another terrifically funny murder mystery with Gerry and Ronaled on a yoga retreat when Gerry heard a shot and finds the owner dead in her cabin. Sealia has Carter under investigation so he has his hands tied with doing things by the book. So Fortune both Ida Bell and Gerry rush around cursing dribble until she works out whodunit. Read brilliantly again by Cassandra Campbell.

As always a laugh out loud mystery with a great story line. This book was missing many of the usual characters which was a little disappointing. It could be a stand alone mystery but I was expecting a continuation of the previous novels. Assumptions needed to be made on the changing relationship of Fortune & Carter. Where's the dialogue of a house move & the opposition from Celia etc. No Sunday service. No Celia & Cronies nor any other residents that we have come to love. So, yes it was great but I'd say it was an extra read rather than a continuous story. Hope the next picks up the threads again.
