Mother's Day, Muffins and Murder plus PTA tips

I truly enjoy a good mystery and who couldn't use helpful hints along the way?  This could very well be a "how to" manual for working with a school PTA and keeping events organized especially where volunteers are concerned.  It was also a great story that kept me guessing all the way to the end as to "who done it." 

 

Our heroine, Ellie Avery, is an Army mom who also doubles as a professional organizer as in clutter and a little bit of a reluctant sleuth.  She is extremely efficient and friendly to boot, unlike the other pro in town, Gabrielle Matheson.  Unfortunately for Gabrielle, while being the organized person she is, she finds a dead body in a closet.  Or does she?  After a false fire drill the body has disappeared and Gabrielle is looking foolish until the body shows up on the woods on Field Day.  Gabrielle decides that it is up to Ellie to get this matter organized and solved as quick as possible. 

 

You would think that an elementary school would be a safe place but apparently this one is full of secrets and hazards.  It's no secret that this is a nice little cozy mystery that would be perfect for any day and not just Mother's Day.  The other perfect piece to this cozy puzzle are the tips and easy to follow directions for PTA volunteering found between chapters.
