Gleanings from Price Library by Ruth Abbott
 One by One by Gilbert MorrisDecember, 2000

Winter seems like a great time to stay in a warm house and read mysteries. We have the beginning of a new mystery series called “The Dani Ross Mystery Series” by Gilbert Morris.This is a new direction for Morris as he usually writes historical novels.

The first book is called One by One and establishes that Dani, the daughter of a private investigator, has been called home to New Orleans to help with the family private investigating business. Her father is ill and is concerned because the business is the family income.

Dani had been in seminary studying for the ministry or missionary work. With determination and lots of prayer, she is able to combine her calling with investigating, even when kidnapped along with eleven other people.

None of the twelve know each other but they are united by one dark secret. They don't know what it is, but their lives depend on their confessing it and Dani is under pressure to figure out what it is in a short period of time.

And Then There Were Two by Gilbert MorrisThe second book is called And Then There Were Two. The Ross agency has been hired to protect a wealthy, ruthless businessman and to discover who is trying to murder him. His personal life is complicated by three failed marriages, and some offspring.

He has “found the Lord” and now he wants to mend fences, ask forgiveness, and find his first love.

The mystery series is off to a good start. It is well written and fun to read as it keeps us guessing.
