READER'S GUIDES FOR:
Current Affairs: A Tiara Investigations Mystery
1. Leigh: A central theme of the book is mid-life reinvention. For Leigh was it reinvention, or actually a mid-life return to her "real" self? To quote from Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés, "What I needed was to gather myself, to pull the bones together, to find the lost ones, and to sort them and sing over them." What aspects of her new life have brought her happiness?
2. Victoria: All three detectives have a character arc during the series. What is Victoria's?
3. Tara: IMHO, each protagonist has a lot to recommend her, but everyone seems drawn to Tara. What gives her this much charisma?
4. Here's a bonus question: What is Leigh's husband's name?
