Book excerpt: 'Agatha's Aunt' is one of Harriet Lummis Smith's finest works. Originally published in 1920, the book follows young Agatha Kent, who becomes her family's sole provider. She must care for herself, her brother, and an old spinster. Agatha struggles with how to make ends meet, though she is a resourceful young woman who will do anything to make ends meet. She decides to rent out her room to a blind man, under the belief that he'd be fine with the shabby room, because he won't be able to see the water damage, or the wallpaper peeling off the wall. And she decides to pull a long con - pretending to be her great-aunt. She tries her best to keep up the pretense of being the old lady for as long as possible, until romantic complications threaten to mess up her plans. It is a fun book, engaging, and entertaining.

Suddenly thrown into the heart of a twisted investigation, Clemmie finds herself the uncomfortable subject of intense scrutiny. And the bland, quiet life Clemmie has built for herself in her sleepy South Carolina retirement community comes crashing down as her dark past surges into the present.

She cooks vegetable soup so Lenore will eat something other than Ring Dings; she lures her out of bed with strong coffee and waffles. She looks after the house when Lenore won’t get out of bed at all. So when Lenore and her boyfriend take off for Vegas leaving Cornelia behind with eccentric Aunt Agatha, all Cornelia can do is wait for her to come back. Aunt Agatha sure doesn’t want any fixing.
