2012 book 23

Kerry Greenwood's Flying Too High
I liked the first book in this series well enough and was in the mood for a lighthearted mystery, so decided to read the second one. Our heroine has apparently settled in Australia and set up shop as a private detective, and is soon involved in both a murder and a kidnapping. Maybe it's weird to call such a story lighthearted (especially when the kidnapper is a child molester--though the child in question isn't molested, which isn't really a spoiler so don't get all mad), but Greenwood has a distinctly breezy writing style (to match her heroine's lifestyle) and there's a good sense of humor about everything. B+.
