MYSTERY AT FLAMINGO BAY, The Tin Can Series by Award-Winning Author, Deborah Erdmann

Do you like stories full of humor and adventure?  Are you up to solving a mystery that has a slice of danger? A fun read? 

I was, and I'm so glad I read Deborah's book. It is 109 pages of entertainment. If you venture onto the pages of Mystery at Flamingo Bay—the first offering from The Tin Can Series—you will undoubtedly be kept guessing. Springing from the Mystery at Point Beach series, situated at Two Rivers, Wisconsin, this mystery occurs at a fictional Flamingo Bay Retirement Home in Florida. Both are fascinating locations and share bits of true history—worth spending time in summer, spring, fall, or winter.

Flamingo Bay offers an interesting change of scenery. Windsong's mother, Leah, is willing to involve herself in a dangerous situation that may help Dominic, Forest, and Sailor investigate a unique and unusual case.

The camping and retirement home scenes added to the tension and difficulties these teens face in this story. Deborah's humorous and snarky voice drew me into this story, and the secrets and mystery woven into the pages made me glad that I stopped in at the  MYSTERY AT FLAMINGO BAY. 
​
I'm keeping my watchful eye aware, as I impatiently wait for Deborah Erdmann's next offering! This novel is a youth fiction that also appeals to adults. 


QUESTIONS FOR DEBORAH:

Will you use the next story in The Tin Can Series as an excuse to travel to a new actual location so that you can keep writing fresh, inviting stories?

Actually, I just returned from a trip to Maine. I mentioned to family and friends that I wanted to go there since my next book will take place there, and everyone wanted to come, so we had a group of 10 women. Such fun! I visited a few places that I plan on using in my next book - Mystery at Stone Cove. My upcoming adventures for the last two books in the series will take me to the Muir Redwood Forest in California, and Mount St. Helens in Washington.
