This is the 4th Odelia Gray mystery that I've read in a row. Each one is better than the last as Odelia's life evolves. There is a killer of young women loose who has been nicknamed the Blonde Bomber by the media. Odelia's elderly friend, Lil, comes to her. She is afraid that her successful son, Dr. Brian Eddy, is the Blonde Bomber and she pleads with Odelia to either clear his name or establish that he is indeed the murderer. Of course, nothing is that easy. Nor is it safe to meddle into such things, but does Odelia ever learn? I love, love, love this series! Booby Trap ~MIDNIGHT INK (12) Odelia's at it again!, January 11, 2012 By Ellen Rappaport (Florida) This review is from: Booby Trap (The Odelia Grey Mysteries) (Paperback) This is my 4th Odelia Grey mystery and this author never quits...either does Odelia. Sue Ann Jaffarian pulls al loose ends together for this latest in the Odelia series. All the close knit people in Odelia's "family" are no longer against her getting involved in yet another murder to be solved. As a matter of fact Greg, Odelia's husband, now has decided to assist Odelia in all her sleuthing endeavors. Mike Steele, Odelia's boss, is actually going to cover her hours for her while she's out and about looking for the blond bomber. And...as if that isn't enough...Zee and Seth, Odelia's closest friends, have also made the decision to be Odelia's back when needed. With a team like this Odelia is apt to go sleuthing forever! This is what I love about Odelia and Jaffarian. This series does not run out of steam nor does the author burn out on her character. The series and all the characters evolve and come together. Great job! I would love to know these characters, Odelia/Zee/Greg and yes even Steele. Wonderful growing relationships between all of them in Odelia's life. Odelia is informed by Lil that the blond bomber is none other than her(Lil's) son. Lil wants Odelia to go online and behind the scenes to find the truth about Dr. Eddy, reknown plastic surgeon and Lil's son. What Odelia does find is that she's not sold on the idea of Dr. Eddy being the blond bomber. But can Odelia find the identity of this serial killer before another murder takes place? I love this series because the characters have believable relationships with each other, they are people I would like to know, the fun is non-stop, and lastly...Odelia is an adventure and a half. Don't stop writing Jaffarian...I love this series.I can only give The highest recommendation for this book to all lovers of mystery series'. Ellen

This one seemed to go in too many directions at once for me.
