Evil for Evil is the tenth book in Deb Pines' traditional whodunit Chautauqua Mysteries featuring the wise and witty reporter sleuth of a certain age Mimi Goldman. "An Agatha Christie for the text-message age," IndieReader calls the series. When Emmy Diner, a true-crime podcaster who champions the cases of forgotten victims, is killed at a Chautauqua book club meeting, she could use her own champion. The police don’t suspect foul play. Everyone present—including Emmy’s boozing brother-in-law, artsy best friend and an ex-love interest, plus a local minister, musician, nurse, preschool teacher and cleaner—seems harmless. Luckily, reporter and relentless snoop Mimi Goldman is at the meeting, too. New to the book club but not to solving murders in the historic, cottage-filed, leafy, lakeside summer arts community of Chautauqua, Mimi Might Emmy have been a threat to someone from one of her cold cases? Or the target of a more recent rival? Or was her death something entirely different? With help from her 90-year-old sidekick Sylvia, Mimi digs in, gradually realizing one terrifying the book club members can't be judged by their covers. Fans of Agatha Christie, Louise Penny, Elly Griffiths and "Only Murders in the Building" will enjoy this twist-filled mystery one early reviewer called "an unputdownable triumph."
