http://JUNE PICKS from the ALA BOOK CLUB
For a weekend away crime, Aggie Mundeen and SAPD Detective Sam take care of a friend’s lakeside cottage.
As they settle in, buckets of rain and gusting winds roil the lake, The peaceful, shady Guadalupe turns into an angry, raging river. Darkness descends, and lightning highlights two people arguing on a dock across the river. When lightning flashes again, they are gone. Did Aggie and Sam witness an accident? A drowning? A murder? In the midst of disaster, as they fight for survival, they face deceit, crime, and possibly, murder.
I love Aggie and Sam. Their chemistry is undeniable. _https://saphsbooks.blogspot.com/2019

__Mallory Maws: Haunted Reading Room Reviews
Aggie Mundeen is back. Brave and passionate, Aggie is a woman full of heart who will steal yours. A once-in-five-hundred-year flood swamps Central Texas and washes away all traces of what just might have been a murder, witnessed from across the lake by Aggie and her boyfriend Sam Vanderhoven. In the aftermath of the devastating flood, Aggie digs—literally—through the thick and fetid mud, making a dangerous enemy along the way, to uncover the murderous secret buried beneath. Nancy G. West has written another fine chapter in the life of her complex, likable heroine, Aggie Mundeen. Highly recommended! __James W. Ziskin, Author of the Anthony and Macavity Award-winning Ellie Stone mystery series.

on SAN ANTONIO’S RIVER WALK.
Like taking a vacation while reading a mystery. A great series with fun characters.
Murder has a way of interfering in the best laid plans. Sam and Aggie must improvise before she ends up dead in the river.
This book is categorized as a humorous mystery, but it is much more. Aggie is really funny, the story is beautifully researched, and downtown San Antonio is accurately described. The perfect keepsake for anyone interested in River City.

FIT TO BE DEAD
Aggie Mundeen Mystery #1 – Lefty Award Finalist
West’s main characters’ histories suggest they could fill a series. I hope so. I love this book!
Totally loved it. Funny, mystery, and great writing style.
Aggie Mundeen moves from Chicago to San Antonio and decides to shape up before anybody discovers she writes the column, “Stay Young with Aggie.” She takes Aspects of Aging at a local university and plunges into exercise at Fit and Firm.
Rusty at flirting and mechanically inept, she irritates a slew of male exercisers, then stumbles into murder. The attractive SAPD detective who shows up piques her interest in sleuthing. But the killer comes after her, the health club has to evacuate semi-clad patrons, and the detective has to stall his investigation to save Aggie’s derriere.
Aggie Mundeen’s wry observations on life, death, and the struggle to whip mind and body into shape make this book a delightful read. Joining a health club has never been so dangerous…or so amusing.
Fit to be Dead has it all: intriguing characters that point to romance, an engrossing plot, a compelling puzzle and well-disguised clues—a fun read.

Aggie Mundeen Mystery #2
The dude ranch caper.
I love a good mystery and a romance. This was both.
You will fall in love with Nancy G. West’s writing just as I have!
Sam and Aggie grow closer, and he still does not know of Aggie’s secret grief. A great read. Well-paced and written, there are bursts of humor in this novel that had me roaring with laughter.

Except for wranglers, dudes, heat, snakes and and poison ivy, what could go wrong?

After she scatters a hornet’s nest of cowboys, she discovers that more than one hombre in the bunch would like to slit her throat.

Hurrah for Aggie Mundeen. Aggie’s pluck, humor, intelligence and loving heart will keep her young and make readers smile. _Carolyn Hart.
Smart, But Dead is the perfect combination of brains and heart. A tight mystery, an irrepressible heroine, and superb writing. _James P. Ziskin
