Margaret Lashley Bücher

Change happens. Even when it doesn't make any cents. Planning for a rainy day has never been Val's forte. But when a storm brews up right in her own backyard, Val's forced to get off her lounge chair and spring into action. A shady, ham-fisted developer's threatening to knock down Val's favorite beach haunt, along with all the precious memories held within its shabby walls. With the owner's signature on the bill of sale, the plan seems like a done deal. Or is it? Something fishy's going on at the beach, and it's going to take all the wits Val can muster to put a pig-headed developer out to pasture. But with her friend Goober missing in action, can Val get her act - and her troops - together in time to keep Sunset Beach from being wiped off the map? Sandwiched between ghosts of the past and hopes for the future, Val needs to whip up a miracle if she's going to save her own bacon ... If you like wacky, deeply flawed characters and laugh-out-loud situations, you'll love Cloud Nine! It's the ninth and final book in Margaret Lashley's hilarious Val Fremden Mystery Series. -- Amazon.com
