Review: Nice Cozy but neither Mystery nor Romance

Pleasant entry in series featuring senior living in an assisted living retirement community. Certainly not a romance nor a mystery although it is billed as the latter. I suppose that is for commercial purposes. The story is a simple one: a 90ish Senior is asked briefly to take care of the newly born son of a member of the staff. She has fled from her husband and needs to be free of his brutal ways. How she and her equally elderly friends manage that task and also search for the missing mother constitutes the basic story line. There is little substance to the book (but, yes, it is book length); nevertheless, it is an enjoyable visit to the old folks home as long dormant maternal instincts come to the fore.
