Title grabs your attention and the excerpt reels you in

"Almost Home" draws you in first with the gorgeous cover. Reminds me of the days when I used to sit on the front porch with my grandparents in the evening and just talk about our day. Dolly's boardinghouse comes back to life as World War II begins to ramp up. People are coming in to their town for work but many are coming to Dolly's to heal. A mystery to solve for Dolly and hopefully her new friends to help.
