9 DAYS (Dee Rommel Mystery #2) by Jule Selbo

 








Published September of 2022 by Pandamoon Publishing.

Synopsis:

Dee Rommel has decided to leave the Portland, Maine police force due to physical disability. She lost part of her leg and has to wear a prosthetic. She gets around very well but she just doesn't have it in her to go back on the police force.

Instead, she is working with a private detective and (very slowly) working on her own private investigator license. 

The mother of a wealthy local family with a generations-long history of being town benefactors and being more than a little quirky has confessed to murdering her gardener in her own backyard. The police think it is an open and shut case.

However, her youngest child, a twelve year old who is a genius by anyone's standards thinks otherwise. He has hired the detective agency Rommel works for and Rommel is assigned the case.

While the police seem to think it is a cut and dried case of murder, Rommel keeps finding evidence that things may not be as simple as they seem. It also is obvious that there are people who don't want Rommel to look beyond the simple and obvious explanation...

My review:

This is my second Dee Rommel mystery. She is a great character and the series has a solid feel to it. The author has created a world for her, it makes sense and this reader likes the people in it.

I rate this book 4 stars out of 5. It can be found on Amazon.com here: 9 Days (Dee Rommel Mystery #2) by Jule Selbo.

Note: I received a free copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
