      "I saw him," she said. "He handed an envelope filled with money to the tooth fairy."
      The ramblings of eighty-nine-year-old woman with dementia.  The government employees are used to her regular phone calls and dismiss the crazy old lady; but the new municipal clerk, Chelsey Alton, isn't so sure the woman is off her rocker.  Something's amiss in the Village of Coral Beach, a small, New Jersey shore town community, and Chelsey's determined to find out what it is.
     The former clerk of Coral Beach, Vinny Buttiglieri was murdered and dead bodies keep popping up all over town.  Between being a single mom to a temper tantrum throwing two-year-old, bosses who humiliate her in public, the dead bodies, and a man named Mike Nero that is stalking her, she has her hands quite full!
     Chelsey recruits her good friend, Bonnie, a voluptuous woman with an off-color sense of humor, to assist her on a few recon missions. The deeper they dig, the more they put themselves in danger, becoming entangled with sinister mobsters, criminal activity, and government corruption.
     Not everything is as it seems. Chelsey thinks she's doing the right thing, trying to uncover the truth and protect herself at the same time, but can she save herself when she becomes entrenched too deep in this Jersey shore mystery?


My Review:

This read kept me entrenched on the Jersey shore world.  The descriptive nature of the author built the world around me and I easily imagined I was there.  The characters were very colourful and the plot twists kept coming keeping the mystery alive.  Tax Cut was definitely an entertaining read and one that I would recommend.  No matter if you are looking for something to take to the beach or for some well needed personal time it will fufill your needs!  I look forward to reading other book by Michele Lynn Siegfried in the future!

I would rate this book stand alone as a 3.5 out of 5.
