About the Book:
A Fast-Paced, Keep-You-Guessing Whodunit with a Dash of Romance
When a valuable Salvador Dali painting belonging to her grandmother's friend is mysteriously replaced by a forgery, FBI Special Agent Serena Jones is called in to investigate. Serena hopes finding the thief will also mean finally measuring up to Nana's expectations. But when the evidence points to members of the owner's own household, it becomes increasingly clear that Serena won't be winning any popularity contests.
The Dali isn't the only painting that's fallen prey to the forgery-replacing thief, raising the specter of a sophisticated theft ring--one with links to dirty cops, an aspiring young artist, and the unsolved murder of Serena's grandfather.
With plenty of edge-of-your-seat moments, Another Day, Another Dali gives the plucky Serena Jones--and readers--a new high-stakes case to crack.

My Thoughts:
I love this series!! Sandra Orchard has created a crime fighting character that will keep you in stitches while she hustles to solve the case of the day. And a thoroughly unique concept keeps the mystery running until the final page.
An over-arching theme runs through both the first and current books in the series as Serena Jones follows every lead in the murder of her grandfather. She was just a little girl when he was killed, and she's carried the memories and the feelings with her ever since.
But someone doesn't want Serena to find out who's behind the art forgeries...or how her grandfather died. And they will do anything to stop her, at any cost.
The romance is okay, but I'm reading these for the suspense and the unique relationship Serena has with her family. Aunt Martha is a hoot, and Nana needs to loosen up a little. Until she does, I'll be eagerly waiting for the next mystery from Orchard.
I'm giving "Another Day, Another Dali" my "Oh, The Feels" award, and until next time...
Mark Your Place,
