This may be a Rose Kaplan Mystery but in my opinion her best friend Ida Berkowitz, who tells us the story, is the star of the show.

The characters at the Julius & Rebecca Home for Jewish Seniors may be 70+ but they are a community who seem to have murders as a source of excitement now that Mrs. K is considered the go to person for help in solving crime.

When Vera Gold dies on Yom Kippur no-one is overly concerned, she was sick, nor overly saddened, she was a pain in the tuchis!

Ida finds herself dressed in borrowed leathers climbing onto the back of Moishe’s Harley Davidson.  A situation only she can find herself in by listening to the advice of her BFF Rose Kaplan!  See it takes more than solving a murder to make life interesting!

Now, if I could talk to Ida I’d answer her question about Paul – he never married so it wasn’t an issue.

If you enjoy a story told with Jewish sentence structure and learning new words, this is the book for you.  Welcome to the world created by Mark Reutlinger.  It is a blast.

While you are waiting for the Nov 17, 2015 release of this book,  read book one in the series: Mrs. Kaplan and the Matzoh Ball of Death.
