Gertrude, Gumshoe is desperate for a case, but sleepy Mattawooptock isn’t exactly a hotbed of criminal activity. When she connects two suspicious deaths to Portland’s poetry slam scene, she’s convinced she’s onto something big—even if her reluctant chauffeur Calvin needs some persuading.
Armed with her walker, a dog collar, and one hastily written poem, Gertrude goes undercover in Portland’s edgiest poetry venue. As the body count rises and Calvin’s beloved Cadillac becomes a target, Gertrude’s unconventional investigation methods might just crack the case … or prove that her imagination is running wild. Either way, the Portland poetry scene will never be the same.
Join the irrepressible amateur detective on her most outlandish case yet—where poetry might be deadly, but Gertrude’s determination is the most dangerous force of all.

Robin Merrill has done it again with another Gertrude, Gumshoe book. This quirky lady will work her way into your heart and you will delight in her antics. And it seems like her crime-fighting team is growing as she navigates through these murders. I loved the scene of her driving test though I felt bad for Calvin.
I listened to this book on Audible and I love how Darlene Allen manages to keep all the characters consistent through all the books. This series is delightful!
