Scent of a Mystery was an enjoyable read.
The story of Megan and Aiden, a dog, a hurricane and an old FBI case that is reopened helped me pass a warm muggy night. They live in Citrus Beach, Florida and are buckling down for a hurricane to hit. Luckily all they got was some rain and wind. The worst hit area was Lady Fish Bay, a few hours away.
When checking out the area after the storm a neighbor asks if Megan could check on her property up in Lady Fish Bay. She takes a group of friends and her dog, Barney, and heads that way. What they find surprises them—family pictures, old knick-knacks and personal items are scattered all over the beach. They decide to collect them all and find the owners.
Barney finds an old wooden box buried in the sand and thus the mystery begins. I won’t go into all the details, buy the book yourself and read how this box leads a family to reunite and why the FBI gets involved.
The first few chapters of the book were slow as all the characters were introduced. It was hard to keep them all straight. I also thought the dialogue throughout the book was forced and way too long. It also made the reading hard. Once the hurricane leaves and the box is found the story picks up steam and I was turning pages rather fast.
All in all, I enjoyed this book. The characters seemed real to me and the plot was one that probably could actually happen. Nice job, Victoria LK Williams.

A delightful but suspenseful story of mystery and mayhem involving a hurricane and how some found treasures connect to an FBI cold case. I can hardly wait to read the next book in this exciting series!

I really enjoyed reading this book. I like the author’s imagination and the concept of finding things that are meaningful to people after they’ve lost so much. Also the backstory of the import /export business. Very well done!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of editing needed.
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2014
This book is slower than the first one, but okay. The reason for the three star rating is the editing. Many errors. A consistent one is between where and were. And agreeing with the dog's "sediment" instead of "sentiment." Momentum is a property of physics, momento is a keepsake. There are many others. Editors are not really that expensive and Indies should utilize them as grammar and usage are sometimes weak points even for writers. The investment is well worth it. Spell check is not all you need as it will not catch the errors mentioned above as they are spelled correctly. I hope that MS Williams will undertake that for her next title.

I enjoyed all 3 of the books in this series I've read so far. The storylines are good, I like the characters, and I like that it's a series. But the editing leaves a bit to be desired. It's nowhere near as bad as some books, but using words like momentum, repeatedly, when it should be memento, or to instead of too, does jar ones reading enjoyment. And in the particular book, there's no resolution to what happened to Ginger, the cat found after the store. We know Lucy brought her home, but there was no mention of her ever again...did anyone even try to find her owner? Did Lucy keep her, and what did Paul have to say about it? A little thing, yes, but as animals are a part of this series, especially this book, it would have been nice to know what happened with Ginger. I do love all the bits with Barney, especially his continuous stealing of the box. He's a little charmer and I hope he continues to play a big part in the books.

"Batten down the hatches, there's a hurricane a commin.' " While the winds blow and the family huddles, there's a mystery afoot. When it's time to clean up, leave it to Megan and her dog Barney to stumble onto a ten year old murder that left a live corpse, an FBI unsolved crime and a family to reunite. This is one you've got to help solve.
