Trouble Up Finny’s Nose

August 12th, 2008. Filed under: Tuesday's Tempting Reads.

Interesting title for an interesting read.  Trouble Up Finny’s Nose by Dana Mentink is a mystery which begins with it’s title.  Who is Finny and how did he end up with trouble up his nose?  Finny is not a person, but rather a place. Finny is a town built around and above a steep bluff that looked like a tremendous nose. The trouble in Finny is all over that nose.  Ruth Budge takes on more adventure in her life than she really would like.  It all starts with the mysterious manuscript of a novel that her husband was secretly writing before his death.  Ruth’s adventures include finding a dead body in the Central Park fountain and proceeds through a big event at the Finny Art Gallery along with a marijuana farm, secret artist, affairs and an amorous caterer tossed in the mix. 

I’m not sure how all that trouble got stuffed up Finny’s Nose, but it certainly is interesting to see how it all gets blown out into the open.  Fix a nice pot of tea, curl up in a big comfy chair and prepare to be entertained by this Christian fiction.  I’ll be looking for more of Ms Mentink’s works.
