Book Overview

WAS THERE REALLY A FOOT DANGLING OUT OF THAT CARPET?


Fifty-two-year-old Glory Harper is stuck in a wheelchair with a broken leg, bored, and itching for some excitement. She doesn't expect it to come in the form of a foot dangling out the back of a carpet as it's carried into her new neighbor's house. But Glory's past "run-ins" with the police makes her latest report more difficult to believe. And, just when she thinks someone's taking her seriously, Glory realizes Detective Rick Spencer, a Harrison Ford look-alike, appears more interested in her than in her story.


Despite little to no support from family and police, Glory is determined to solve the mystery-racking up laughs for the reader along the way


THE CASE OF THE BOUNCING GRANDMA was a 2009 Finalist in American Christian Fiction's Carol Awards in the mystery category.
