A touch of nostalgia, a murder, and good friends.
When a former colleague is implicated in his neighbor’s demise, Sheridan Hendley returns to Cold Creek to prove his innocence. Annoying as Max can be, she can’t imagine the quirky professor is capable of murder. Unfortunately, not everyone shares her opinion. Of course, it doesn’t help that Max threatened his neighbor in a public place soon before the man was murdered. Or that the victim’s drug shipments had a habit of turning up on Max’s doorstep.

My Thoughts
Old Friends and New, Another Murder by Christa Nardi has Professor Sheridan Hendley helping former colleague
and quirky professor, Max beat a murder wrap.
Max had a loud argument with the victim before his death and he has been
less helpful with Detective Brett McMann and Detective James Farby. Can Sheridan help locate the killer? Old Friends and New, Another Murder is the
third novel in A Sheridan Hendley Mystery series. I believe it is best if the series is read in
order. I had not had the opportunity to
read the first two books and I felt I was missing information. Old Friends and New, Another Murder is easy
to read with friendly characters. I like
the university setting which is unusual for a cozy mystery. We get a glimpse at faculty life and the work
a Visiting Assistant Professor (Sheridan’s position) does at Millicent College.
Max Bentley is a quirky science
professor who is very protective of his work.
I can see why the police suspected him.
The mystery relates back to a previous crime Sheridan and her husband,
Detective Brett McMann investigated. It
seems that drugs at high school and college campuses are a problem in the area. I like how Brett and Sheridan work together
and share information. He appreciates
her assistance and input. I was happy
that the mystery was completely wrapped up by the end of the book. It is nice that Sheridan has a good
relationship with her stepdaughter, Maddie who is in high school. Sheridan volunteers at Clover Hills Pets
& Paws (dog rescue). I like that
this was featured in the story. I wanted
to adopt all the animals. Old Friends and New, Another Murder is a charming story with adorable animals, choral
chaos, drug delinquencies, a peculiar professor, and matrimonial merriment.
Old Friends and New, Another Murder is available from Amazon*. The other novels in A Sheridan Hendley Mystery series are A New Place, Another Murder & Dogs and More Dogs, Another Murder.
