This one is from Donna B:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">&#8221; &#8230;\u00a0<\/span>Over a year ago, I was in my grandmother&#8217;s assisted living facility and they have book racks\u00a0there. I was browsing and found a great cozy mystery but I can&#8217;t remember the name of it or even\u00a0the author. It was about a slightly older mom of two young adult mooching sons. I don&#8217;t remember\u00a0if she has a job. She may have been a real estate agent. The two sons don&#8217;t treat her very well\u00a0and I think she was divorced so she&#8217;s alone, which frees her up to solve mysteries. There&#8217;s\u00a0nothing more frustrating than reading a few pages of a mystery and not being able to take it with\u00a0you at the time and then you end up losing it! Of course the book was gone when I went in for my\u00a0next visit&#8230;&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hmmm, this one does not ring any bells for me. I&#8217;m hoping that one of you can help Donna B find the author for whom she is looking. If you think you might know who the author of this book is, please post a comment. Thank you!<\/p>\n<p>P.S. #1 \u00a0Janet thinks Donna B may be looking for:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cozy-mystery.com\/Barbara-Taylor-McCafferty.html\"><strong>Tierney McClelland<\/strong><\/a>:\u00a0<strong>Schuyler Ridgway Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>P.

The cover art and the story description seem familiar. I\u2019ve ordered it and we\u2019ll know shortly.
