<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Amateur detective Ginger Barnes would love to save her childhood babysitter, "Uncle Wunk," from spending his retirement years in federal prison. Yet the damning evidence against the elderly textile professor can't be swept under a rug. Before Gin can persuade anyone else he's innocent of antique fraud-and murder-she must first convince herself.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>Writer's Digest Award Winning Author</em></strong></p><p>Ginger Barnes knew escorting Bryn Derwyn Academy's most infamous student downtown to be "scared straight" by a Federal judge would be tough. She did not expect to discover her childhood babysitter, Professor Charlie Finnemeyer, on trial for fraudulently aging an oriental rug. As witnesses against Gin's dear "Uncle Wunk" conveniently suffer natural deaths, fears about Charlie's guilt force the amateur sleuth to make some judicious inquiries. Unlikely suspects include a TV craft show host; the president of a college; a trendy art dealer; and Charlie's suspiciously overprotective wife, whose skill at being in the wrong place at the wrong time isn't helping her husband's case one bit. Gin would love to unravel the murderous scheme in time to persuade the jury of Finnemeyer's innocence, but first she must convince herself.</p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"If you're looking for a great mystery with a strong, intelligent, female amateur sleuth to curl up with on a chilly winter evening then look no further...What makes this book particularly interesting is that Ginger is strongly based on the author herself, so you're not entirely sure where the fact ends and the fiction begins...a compelling, lighthearted series that I hope continues indefinitely."
