Fast Food Kills (A Madge Franklin Mystery) by Kate McLaughlin

Fast Food Kills (A Madge Franklin Mystery) by Kate McLaughlin is a fictional murder mystery novel inspired by the author, Kate McLaughlin, and her husband’s stories. Fast Food Kills (A Madge Franklin Mystery) by Kate McLaughlin follow retried couple Madge and Paul Franklin as they simply enjoy a retired life. The couple lives in their RV which they use to travel all across the United States of America. For the last six years the couple has enjoyed a leisurely time traveling as both simple tourists and as volunteers; this calmness ends when they are recruited by a government agency to track a mad scientist. This particular mad scientist is a suspected killer who is believed to be using fast food restaurants as his weapon of choice. Fast Food Kills (A Madge Franklin Mystery) by Kate McLaughlin is a novel that will appeal to both adult and elderly audiences who enjoy murder mysteries.


Move over Serlock, Watson, Gibbs, Hotch, and Gordon and make room for retired travelers Madge and Paul Franklin as they show you how to solve a real murder while enjoying life. I found myself really enjoying the characters of Madge and Paul Franklin; they had an interesting relationship with each other both as husband and wife as well as partners in this clandestine operation. The decision to have a retired couple as the main character is something unique in murder mystery novels, so I found the concept to be intriguing and entertaining. My favorite part of the book was the Death Valley National Park scene near the end of the novel. Just WOW what an ending!
