Garage Sale Mystery

a review by dennyjt

Antique shop owner Loughlin finds a friend dead in her house. The police call it accidental but she finds it suspicious and thinks someone is targeting garage sales. Cop Iverson quickly arrests a burglary couple who swear the woman was dead when they broke in. Loughlin finds slivers of evidence to solve the case, but there is only one suspect. Cozy housewife crime tale with lovely leading lady, but not much else. Further entries were much better, with more developed characters. First of a series which was recast but for Loughlin and Strange. Daughter Canning here has almost graduated college, whereas later she was much younger. She also ends up dating the cop which would not be continued.
