Mandie determines she'll find out who the woman is of it's the last thing she does in Europe. But the fact remains that the woman may be dangerous.

What a fun Mandie mystery! The
mentions of the different Biblical time-periods were another neat historical
aspect of this book! And just who is the strange woman from the ship? ;)
See y’all on Monday with a new
review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
Who was the strange woman who was following Mandie?
