When I read a trilogy, I generally start with book one of the series. This time however, I read out of sequence but was not disappointed because there were really no spoilers in book number two that would ruin the surprises in Wendy and The Lost Boys, a rollicking comedy/mystery by Barbara Silkstone.In book one we meet Wendy Darlin, real estate broker, "big sister" in the Big Brother/Sister organization and a plethora of characters named appropriately in spoof of Peter Pan of Neverland fame.  The cast includes Charlie Hook, Roger Jolley, Tinkerbelle, and the "I won't grow up" guy, Peter Payne , Wendy's "little sister" and a pig named Stillpork.  Along with these unusual characters there's "dancing Annie" and Grandpa Earl the oldest of the "Hook Clan", muskrat hairpiece and all. It's like a dream you have after eating just before bedtime. [Pulled pork anyone?]  For you Ms. Silkstone serves up a snack of mystery, mayhem and murder, laughter and Lost Boys . I'm glad I asked for this second helping of Silkstone's Egyptian Antiquities mysteries and decided to read books one and two so I'd be ready for the third in this fun-filled trilogy, Cairo Caper. The price is right; the read is a riot and I recommend it!
