The Serpents Trail - (Maxie and Stretch Mystery) by Sue Henry (Paperback)

About the Book

Now in paperback--the first of a new series starring Maxie McNabb, a retiree whose adventures across the country in her motor home are destined for murderous roadblocks. As she sets out from Alaska to the Lower 48, Maxie must first figure out who burgled her friend's Colorado home.

Book Synopsis

At sixty-three, Maxie McNabb is cruising down the Alaska Highway in her brand-new Winnebago. With her mini-dachshund at her side and the open road ahead, she's never been happier. But before her exploration of the Lower Forty-eight gets underway, Maxie needs to figure out who burgled her friend's Colorado home-and why. And the closer Maxie gets to solving the puzzle, the more it becomes chillingly clear that her friend's life isn't the only one on the line.
