Ava and Carol
Ava and Carol are our protagonists in this series and are funny. I laughed a lot while I was reading this book. Ava is a headstrong leader who will go into any situation without thinking it through. At the same time, Carol is the brains of the operation. These two best friends prove to be a formidable pair. Carol is the one that brings forth the thought of them solving the mystery of who could have stolen the diamonds from the museum. They both have the skills that prove to be of good use to them throughout the story, along with who their parents know and their jobs as well. Ava and Carol are great main characters, and I can’t wait to see how they solve the next mystery!
The Mystery
Carol read about the thieves stealing away into the night with Ramsess the second’s Diamonds. She is also the one that suggests they try to help solve the mystery. They have solved two cases before this one and think they can do it again. Obviously, from a safe distance, they don’t get caught or in trouble or anything. I was enthralled with the mystery, and I didn’t think one of the jewel thieves was who they were. Mr. Lockhaven got me!
Five Stars

I enjoyed reading this book and didn’t want to put it down as I was enraptured in the reading. I can’t wait to see what Mr. Lockhaven puts them through in the next mystery.

About Thomas Lockhaven
Forty years later, I was able to fulfill my dreams and become a full time writer. When I began writing, I decided that my books would be a safe-haven from the real world. My children’s series all have strong messages of perseverance, thinking outside the box, friendship and loyalty. I have a daughter, and as I work through my manuscripts, I always try to imagine what I can say to inspire and entertain at the same time.
For my cozy readers, I spent much of my life traveling to small coastal towns in North Carolina and then later in my life to the coastal towns in New England. I’ve always loved the idiosyncrasies of the locals, and I’ve always wanted to bring them to life in a book series. My Coffee House Sleuths stories are just that. And just like my children’s books, I endeavor to write stories that are clean, with very little violence and no profanity. I do my best to help people disappear from the craziness of life, even if just for a little while.
I currently live in Boston, but my dream is to move to a small coastal town, stare out over the ocean, and to let the words flow. I have an incredible wife who constantly inspires and encourages me- and an amazing daughter who is my most harsh, but loving critic. As I said earlier, my passion is to write and to continually improve and perfect my craft. For those of you who read my books, I humbly thank you. For those of you who have never read my books, I welcome you with open arms.
