Introducing a new son! Not really, just a new actor playing Jason and Jennifer Shannon's son Logan (Conner Stanhope). The rest of the cast is back for the fifth movie in Hallmark's Garage Sale Mystery series.
In this story Jennifer runs into an old high school friend and fellow antique dealer who convinces Jennifer to take her stock on consignment as she is moving to Santa Barbara and giving up the antique business. While at her house to look at more antiques in her barn, the two discover the body of her ex! Her friend is subsequently charged with a two year old murder and Jennifer is compelled to get to the bottle of this whodunnit! Meanwhile her new son, Logan, is working on writing a video game with his two friends until they come up with a brilliant idea to hack into the school records and change their grades.
Even though this crime takes place out of his jurisdiction, Detective Lynwood acts as a good friend and helps Jennifer tremendously with the case.
Jennifer visits her favorite medical examiner...Tramell, who doesn't disappoint: " I'd offer you a drink but it's gotta be a stiff one.
Did I mention I might have to leave this place? It's a dead end job."
Dani had a side story of being offered a job as the manager of a high end art dealership...and she uses Hannah to help scout the place out.
This series has really hit it's stride, this was a great mystery and I really enjoyed the tight family unit and friendship between Dani and Jennifer. It's nice to have little details like chocolate cake stealing, dinners with friends....this new regular lunch with Frank. I really appreciate a slightly older core group in this cosy mystery....and the antiques. I am still living the antiques!
