Their house is full of exotic items from around the world that need to be sold off. When Sarah learns that the deceased was retired CIA agents, the job becomes more intriguing, but when an intruder breaks in and a hidden camera is found, it also becomes more dangerous. And Sarah has enough on her plate right now since she’s investigating a murder on the side at the nearby Air Force base, where her status as a former military spouse gives her a special kind of access.

With so much work piling up, Sarah decides to hire some help. But her assistant, Harriet, a former FBI hostage negotiator, has a rare talent for salesmanship. Which is good, because Sarah may have to haggle for her life with Harriet’s assistance

The newest addition to Sherry Harris’ “A Sarah W. Garage Sale Mystery” cozy book series from Kensington Publishing https://www.kensingtonbooks.com/ hit the shelves in December and is already a hit.

Sarah has been a favorite character in this cozy book series since the first book. She is strong, independent, loyal, and trustworthy. As a character, she is everything readers could want in a heroine. Her amateur sleuthing skills are growing with each new book. Other returning characters, such as Stella, Mike, and Seth, are charismatic and move the plot along smoothly. The authentic military life has always been a big appeal to this series, and this holds once again in this new volume. The setting isn’t described in detail, but there is enough to keep readers interested and turning the page.

Not everything is as it seems, and Sarah has to unravel the evidence of not one, but two crimes to find the bad guys. Suspects are plentiful, and red herrings abound. The ending of this cozy book will surprise many readers. Overall, I found Sell Low, Sweet Harriet, to be a refreshing read and a fantastic addition to the series.
