Synopsis
America's favorite Woman of a Certain Age takes the law into her own hands when a band of jewel thieves targets her town
It's lonely and boring in Miss Julia's normally boisterous town, what with husband Sam off on a long-planned tour of Russia and Hazel Marie vacationing in Mexico with Mr. Pickens. After inviting twenty-five of her closest friends to a party in her home, Miss Julia discovers that she's been robbed—her jewelry, including her engagement ring (a perfect replica of Princess Diana's), is missing! According to the police, this is not the first time the town has been the target of thieves, but Miss Julia is determined to make it the last. Packing Little Lloyd into the car, Miss Julia heads to Palm Beach for sun, sand, and a stakeout. With Etta Mae Wiggins along for the ride and a positively sodden PI on retainer, it's only a matter of time before they get their men. Miss Julia Strikes Back will delight Ann Ross's growing legion of fans and will be the perfect gift for Mother's Day—or any day.

April 14, 2009: I have read several of her books. I like the way the characters grow in each book. This time Miss Julia takes on a drug cartel on her own terms. She is a middle aged lady from a small town. The book was a fun read. Her ideas sound unrealistic, but she sticks to her guns & carries them out. It's just a fun book for a summer afternoon. If you have the others add this to it, if you don't have the others you might want to read them so you can see how the characters develop.
I Also Recommend: Aunt Dimity.

July 13, 2008: Just finished reading my first Miss Julia book and enjoyed it very much. It was a light easy read with suspense. Excellent book for lazy days of summer.
