Joey and Mary Alice are sent for one week each summer to stay with their Grandma Dowdel in a small southern Illinois town. You would think that nothing would ever happen in such a small town, but there's the corpse that won't rest peacefully, the revenge on a some teenage pranksters, a ride in a airplane, and much more. Each of their seven visits is an adventure.
I listened to this on audio and really enjoyed it. I'm not a huge historical fiction fan, but this one kept the action moving with humorous stories. I thought the narration of the story was good. One little quibble is that there were weird pauses in the narration that didn't always make sense.
