Summary: Moving and fun mystery about human relationships
Review: Another visit with Clan MacPherson. Elizabeth is back in the states mourning Cameron, who is lost at sea, and working as an investigator for her brother's law firm.

Her parent's divorce is final and Elizabeth's mother has decided to be a political lesbian. Her brother is handling a murder case where the wife of a bigamist is accused of murdering her husband, and also helping a woman marry a dolphin. Bill MacPherson's law partner, A.P. Hill, is also handling a murder case where a woman shot her ex-husband and his new wife in cold blood.

Not a particularly restful way for Elizabeth to deal with the disappearance of her beloved Cameron. It does make for some fun and fascinating reading for the audience. It will also make you think about the relationships in your own life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious, very good read!
Review: Before I retired the only chance I had to read wa s when I went to bed. This book made me laugh so much my husband asked me to read in the living room because I was keeping him awake! It was such a good read that I recommended it to all my friends, and before it was over with I couldn't remember who borrowed it from me last. It was such an honest story and reminded me so much of characters that I had met in my life. Bill is the perfect brother, and Elizabeth's letters are so like so many I've read. Anyone with a sense of humor will appreciate this great story. McCrumb outdid herself!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stunning
Review: Elizabeth MacPherson is by herself a supremely entertaining persona. The addition of the hilarious Eleanor Royden caused me to burst out laughing in airports and on planes to my dismay. The demise of the dolphin loving woman (a cousin I believe) was exquisite. Sharyn McCrumb is not just as good as other mystery writers I have seen mentioned in some of the reviews. No, she is much better. This book disappeared long ago among my friends, as did the next two replacements. All thought the book absolutely delightful. I highly recommend this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A huge dissapointment
Review: Granted Sharon McCrumb wrote this book in the middle of her extremely well written ballad series, continuing the saga of foresinc anthropologist Elizabeth McPherson. Perhaps she has become bored with the McPherson character. Or prehaps she just wanted a venue to rant about the excesses of liberal academia. In either case, this book is best forgotton. Sorry, Sharron.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A disappointment!
Review: Having started reading Sharyn McCrumb's books with the Appalachian series, I have to say that I was disappointed in the Elizabeth MacPherson books. They just don't have the depth of her other series (even "Bimbos of the Death Sun" is more interesting) and just don't capture my interest.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Elizabeth is still in top form! But we do want Cameron back!
Review: I always enjoy Elizabeth's adventures, and this is no exception. Without her, Brother Bill couldn't possibly function. However, she needs to leave him to his own devices, and strike out on a boat to find her husband. Maybe Cousin Geoffrey could accompany her; his catty wit is the perfect foil for Elizabeth's romatic streak. Thanks, Ms. McCrumb, for another enjoyable book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: not her best one but still a talented mystery writer!
Review: I am growing more and more attached to the writing of Sharyn McCrumb. However, now I am wanting her to continue with the relationship of Elizabeth MePherson and Cameron Dawson. We are left with no clue as to his demise in "If I'd killed him when I met him." Elizabeth HAS to find him!! Please say she is writing a sequel to that book!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: ridiculous
Review: I bought the book because I absolutely loved "The Song Catcher" and the title intrigued me. However, this book is not up to McCrumb standard. What was she thinking???Why would you put some assinine story about a relationship with a dolphin! in with the rest of this book? The other "stories" in the book wove together nicely as a good mystery. Why, oh why, add that nonsense about the dolphin? I may never read another of her books because of this. I can't believe the difference between this and the incredible "Song Catcher"
