Desert Moon by Maria Grazia Swan is another great mystery featuring Lella York. This time Flash, Lella's cat, causes the mischief. Larry has left for Phoenix, and halfway there he discovers Flash in the back of his car. Lella drives four hundred miles from Dana Point, California to Arizona to pick up the delinquent cat. After Lella arrives, she is involved in an accident. Lella has to stay in town to clear up any legal side effects from the incident. Larry is in Phoenix to help an innocent man get pardoned for a murder he didn't commit. With both of them needing to be there for a while, Larry and Lella rent a vacation condo. Flash befriends the neighbor and her unique pet. Flash's unusual friendship lands Lella in another mysterious case involving murder and missing persons. Is her neighbor hiding something? Lella needs to find out.

Desert Moon by Maria Grazia Swan is a fantastic cozy mystery. This is a delightful story with engaging characters. It has some very interesting twists, and Lella is in the middle of it all, meddling again. Lella, with the help of Flash, descends on the neighbors to get answers about their loopy landlady. This time her meddling pays off, and she learns the sad story of the sorrowful woman. This is another wonderful Lella York Mystery, and although it is part of a series, it is a great standalone. This is an amazing mystery novel and I highly recommend it to cozy mystery fans.
