"Mary looked at Kate, who shook her head in disbelief. Mary shrugged and walked toward the exit, smiling. She felt very good about what she had just done. After all, if you didn't call a pig a pig, it might never know it was one."
Second Street Station by Lawrence H. Levy is the Nancy Drew series for the mystery-starved adult. Only, instead of sweet, kind, Nancy Drew, we have the witty, bold Mary Handley. Honestly, when I first got this book, I was skeptical. It seemed very John Grisham-ish. I was TOTALLY wrong.
This book, while not quite a page-turner, certainly has the basics of one. Three or four mysteries begin separately and end up to be related. Loosley based on a real event and with big name characters like Thomas Edison, J.P. Morgan, and Nikola Tesla, this book is certainly worth your while.
