Karen Musser Nortman, after previous incarnations as a secondary social studies teacher (22 years) and a test developer (18 years), returned to her childhood dream of writing mysteries. Her first series, The Frannie Shoemaker Campground Mysteries, sprouted from numerous camping trips in Iowa and through at least 24 other states. The Frannie Shoemaker Mysteries center around a group of retirees who camp together and sometimes stumble over dead bodies. Six of the books have been designated IndieBRAG medallion honorees and three have been finalists in Chanticleer CLUE and Mystery and Mayhem contests. Most of the books are based on actual campgrounds.

Karen has two other series. The Time Travel Trailer series follows the adventures of Lynne McBriar who buys a vintage camper that turns out to be a time portal. The first in the series, by the same name, was the 2015 category winner in the Chanticleer Paranormal contest. The Mystery Sisters is a new series involving two seventy-something sisters who travel the country in a 1950 Studebaker, argue, annoy their relatives, and solve mysteries.

Karen has three children and eight grandchildren. She also loves reading, gardening, and knitting, and can recite the 99 counties of Iowa in alphabetical order.

    Seventy something sisters travel to Missouri to spend some quality time with Lil's daughter who is in charge of the town's Christmas celebration. But, it is one thing after another throwing a damper on the festivities.

    Who would do such a thing? Is there more than one? Why? The sisters, Max and Lil, set out to find out.

    A fun short read

    4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Clean Story
    Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2020
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This is the 3rd story in this series I have read . The stories are clean, nothing objectionable, no adult language. This story is set at Christmas time and Max and Lil, the sisters, are visiting Lily's daughter who is the director in charge of the winter festivals. The the mystery begins with a series of mishaps and of course, the sisters are in the thick of things. The reason for the 4 vs. 5 stars was for a need for editing. I had to re-read so sentences several times due to missing preposition and other errors. Other wise, I did enjoy this cute short story.

    I really enjoy the adventures of Lil and Max! There never seems to be a dull moment when the two of them are in town! Their daughter/niece Georgiann, aka George, is newly hired as the parks and service director for a small town with her first assignment being the organizing and fulfillment of the Christmas celebration. Between the arson, costume theft and unexpected fireworks she has her hands full and her new job is on the line! Assistance comes from Lil and Max! No one stands a chance of out maneuvering them! It's a very short story and a good read! Enjoy!!

    Georgiann landed a job in a small Missouri town planning a winter festival. She invited her mother Lil and her aunt Max both in their seventies to come for a visit.

    When several vandalism acts and an arson fire occur Lil and Max put their sleuth caps on. They are afraid if the vandalism goes on the festival will be ruined and Georgiann will lose her job.

    Sit down and start reading, you might get to catch a seventy year old lady driving a snowblower chasing a bad guy in Santa’s sleigh down Main Street.

    An enjoyable book, I enjoyed reading it.
