Duplicity at the Lowell House — Caryl McAdoo

There's nothing covered that won't be revealed. Greed weaves a tangled web at the Dallas Lowell House, in 1866, the fanciest establishment west of the Mississippi. One must rise very early though to outfox the hotel's proprietor. With the help of his exuberant wife, Charity, and his friend and former sergeant, Morgan Lowell sees through the duplicity, but can he prove it?  The story also includes a mature romance of a Dallas Deputy Sheriff as a side story.Readers first meet the Lowells in McAdoo's Cross Timbers Romance Family Saga, a ten-novel series. Charity is an eight-year-old in book one GONE TO TEXAS, and then twenty-one in book four, LEAVING TEXAS. So if you love these amateur sleuths, be sure to read those as well!
