Rocco’s September
Book of the Month
WHISPERS OF
WARNING/Jessica Estevao
Ruby Proulx’s
new life in Orchard Beach, Maine, faces some sinister complications in the next
Change of Fortune Mystery by Jessica Estevao…
Free from the clutches of her con artist father, Ruby Proulx is starting to settle in at the Belden, her aunt Honoria’s seaside hotel. She loves finally being rooted in one place and also feels a sense of purpose as she helps Honoria keep her business afloat by acting as a psychic medium for the hotel’s metaphysically inclined guests.
When one of the guests, renowned Spiritualist and outspoken suffragist Sophronia Foster Eldridge, checks into the hotel for a monthlong stay, Ruby finds her sense of purpose expands outside the confines of home and family. Sophronia takes Ruby under her wing and mentors her in the mediumistic abilities, encouraging her to fight for women’s rights.
But not everyone is as happy with Sophronia’s appearance in Old Orchard. When a dangerous act of sabotage is carried out and a body is found floating in the pool of a local bathhouse, Ruby takes it upon herself to find answers— and in the process learns that her new friend has been hiding some deadly secrets of her own…

ROCCO sez:
The second in the Change of Fortune mystery series is a real winner! If
you like your mysteries coupled with a dash of the supernatural, then this
charming series is for you! Ruby Proulx
is one spunky heroine who reminds me in a way of Nancy Drew. Fearless and adventuresome. Old Orchard Maine is the perfect setting for
this engrossing series that keeps getting better and better! Four and a half
paws!!!!!!!
