About this book:
“When
a Congressional Medal belonging to World War II veteran Deanie Spangler goes
missing at her hundredth birthday party, Priscilla is determined to find
answers to the theft. Who would stoop so low to steal a keepsake from a
decorated war hero? Can they recover the medal before all traces of its
whereabouts dissolve? As Priscilla and Mildred scour the museum where the party
was held, they begin to notice other artifacts missing. Is the thief preparing
to strike again?
Priscilla follows the clues to
find a more sinister scheme in the making. Through the process of solving the
mystery, she discovers a piece of the nation’s past she didn’t know existed and
comes to a greater appreciation of the ordinary women and men who sacrificed so
much to keep their families and friends safe—and their country free.”

My
personal Rating- 
While at first I wasn’t the most
interested in this mystery, the middle of the story brought in about ship
wreckages and possible treasure, which caught my attention. I found the book
more interesting after that. ;)
There was a good amount of faith
content in this book and it was nice to see new characters (that weren’t the trouble
makers or thieves). :)
See y’all on Friday 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.
