An audiobook by Spencer Quinn is my favorite kind of cozy treat. The author of the beloved “Chet and Bernie” mysteries, Quinn has written a stand-alone novel with a delightful hero: Mrs. Loretta Plansky, a recent widow in her seventies. She is awakened one night by a phone call from a voice claiming to be her grandson Will, who desperately needs ten thousand dollars to get out of a jam. Of course Loretta obliges. When she learns the devastating news that she has lost everything, she goes from humiliation to fury, and heads to Eastern Europe in search of justice. You will be rooting for this naïve yet resourceful and determined woman as she heads out on the adventure of a lifetime.
