Moses, better known as Mo, never knew her mother. Her adoptive father, whom she calls The Colonel, claims to have found her floating down the river in a hurricane. Her mother figure, Miss Lana, runs a cafe in their small, quaint, North Carolina town. Mo and her best friend Dale already consider themselves detectives of a sort--they pride themselves on knowing everyone's business and finding lost pets. But when a man in their neighborhood, a frequent customer of the cafe, gets murdered on the same night Dale "borrows" his boat, they find themselves in a heap of trouble. Really great writing and fun, colorful characters, although the mystery gets a bit convoluted towards the end.
