Amazon.com Review by Lucille P. Robinson of Rayne, LA
   
"The story is good, the plotting great. Rebecca Benston draws you into the story from the first page. Read the book. It's a delightful, but short, mystery."
Review by Lillian Cauldwell, GlobalTalk Radio

Hold onto your seats.  Better yet, strap yourself in. "In the Wash" by Rebecca Benston is a spine-tingling, gripping, can't put the book down to eat, drink, or go to the bathroom type of book.  It drove me wild to have to leave the bookmarker in, and finish my other chores. Run, don't walk to the nearest bookstore or go order several copies at Amazon.com and, then pass the book along to other mystery hounds because this book will completely throw you off your feet and hide the scent.  Look out world, Rona Shively is coming to investigate your life.  Watch out!  She may catch up with you, yet.

Review by Anne K. Edwards, Mysteryfiction.net

"An interesting read by talented author Rebecca Benston with plenty of action. This is a tale that lives up to the old radio show opening of "Danger is my business".  Recommended for any mystery fan who likes P.I.s with a past.  Enjoy.  I did."
Review from Books2Mention Magazine

"In The Wash is a suspense driven story that will have mystery lovers glued to this book."

Review by Lucille  P. Robinson of An Alternative Read.com

"I liked Rona Shively because she is so down-to-earth. She is so tough, but underneath that toughness lies a tender heart. The story is good, the plotting great. Rona’s obvious lack of martial arts training, those ever popular talents of most of today’s private investigators and law enforcement authorities, doesn’t affect her ability to handle her criminals. Read the book. It is another delightful, but short, mystery."
Since Rona will be turning 40 soon, I thought it would be fun to give readers an opportunity to point her in the right direction.  All you have to do is tell me how she's going to spend her next birthday.  Is she going to be good to herself and maybe go get a massage and a makeover?  Is she going to wallow in self-pity and drink away the day?  Is she going to find someone to spend her big day with?  Just e-mail your ideas to me at lonestoryteller@yahoo.com by December 31st.  The winner will receive a signed copy of the next Rona Shively book, Keeping the Faith.
