oy! Another Tannie Maria mystery, second in this popular new series -
The Satanic Mechanic
by Sally Andrew. Alexander McCall Smith calls Andrew's mysteries '
A Triumph.
' Can't get higher praise than that. Also, Oprah Winfrey added
Recipes for Love and Murder
by this author to her '
16 Books To Start 2016 Right
'. Again, quite a tribute.

Satanic Mechanic
. She's hoping to get the help she needs to get beyond the abuse. This leads to a murder and a lot of suspicious circumstances. Whenever Tannie Maria's mind is at sixes and sevens, she heads for her kitchen. Some really interesting recipes grace the back of the book. Don't miss this great story. Trust me. It's darn good.
