I liked this 2nd book in the Sally Nimitz mystery series. Sally is called upon to help in a man's disappearance. Cozy mysteries are usually a little slow moving, but the storyline picked up quite a bit in the last third of the book and I got a few chuckles at the uncomfortable circumstances Sally and her friend find themselves in. Sally is a likable sleuth, reminding me a bit of the Angela Lansbury character in Murder She Wrote. Always polite and interested in everyone around her but curious enough to stick her nose into things that sometimes gets her in trouble. This is a fun, quick read and the mystery resolves in highly familiar territory for me, as Wisconsin is my next door neighbor. It was nice to read about characters my own age too, as most stories seem to revolve around twenty or thirty-somethings.
