Whack a Mole | Chris Grabenstein

This is a first for me. All five #WickedWords were in one book.
This book is also a #Roll100 #readyourebooks & #SeriesLove2025 title.

But, I still don‘t know the movie these five words describe. 🤔

Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏

Is the Film Carpool?

AsYouWish @Read4life @Andrew65 OH MY STARS!!! I forgot all about that movie - I loved that movie so much in my teen years!!! While it was a really good guess - not the movie this month. 💙💙💙💙 3d

It was nice being back in Sea Haven on the Jersey shore. Ceepak & Danny catch a case when preserved body parts and skulls from 20 years ago are found in various locations around town. Is the serial killer a regular vacationer or a neighbor?

It also contained all 5 #WickedWords for the month!!

Word 3/5 #bet

All three words so far are from this book. I wonder if I can get all five from it.

A little tea, some penuche walnut fudge, a book& my kitties makes for a lovely hour. 💕💕💕

AlaMich What does penuche taste like? I always just go for the standard chocolate. 2w
kspenmoll @AlaMich It‘s made with butter & brown sugar, milk, vanilla. It tastes like all those ingredients mixed together- a light brown sugar. I tried it with walnuts added because I can‘t eat chocolate. I love it! 1w
AlaMich It sounds delicious! 1w

This #8 in the DCI Banks series is a stunner.
A man is charged with the murder of a wealthy, prominent politician‘s daughter.Prior to his trial,the accused spends months in jail,which he narrates in minute detail.I don‘t want to give anything away, but suffice to say there is a clever multi layered plot,& an in-depth character study. The surprising ending left me cynically wondering if her murder will be avenged or court justice will prevail.

‘“A cadaveric spasm had caused Rothwell to grab and hold onto a handful of dust at the moment of death,and Banks thought of the T.S.Elliott quotation, “I will show you fear and a handful of dust,”which he had come across as the title of an Evelyn Waugh novel.”‘
A wild,ingenious plot, with unforeseen consequences for many of the characters.Bank‘ nemesis “Dirty Dick reappears to the consternation of Banks.At Banks request,big, bumbling,but astute ⬇️

kspenmoll ⬆️ Sgt.Hatchley also reappears & uses his many contacts to sus out a clue left behind at the murder site, some shotgun cleaning papers with an unusual, mild porn sheet. This adds some humor. As in some of previous novels in the series, there are multiple mentions by Banks of music & literature that sent me down a rabbit hole- adding some music to my library. Enjoying a Sam Adams Cold Snap as I write this review. Do you see Poe‘s ears poking up? (edited) 3w
