title: Secondhand Stiff (The Odelia Grey Mysteries)
author:  Sue Ann Jaffarian 
description: The witty Odelia is back juggling relatives and crime in this fast-paced comic mystery. While visiting a storage-locker auction with her mother, mother-in-law, and husband Gregs cousin, Ina, Odelia is shocked to discover the body of Inas husband, Tom. Ina becomes the main suspect, and Odelia and her stubborn mother travel to other thrift shops attempting to determine what really happened. The murder plot is well constructed, but the real attraction herealong with sampling food-truck cuisineis Odelias taut relationship with her mother as they deal with their difficult past. The popularity of storage-auction television shows should draw some new readers to this smart and funny series. Odelia and her colorful family and colleagues are as quirky and appealing as those found in Sharon Fiffers Jane Wheel series. --Amy Alessio
