Book Review: Seventeen Parcels

Seventeen Parcels by Mic Lowther is a literary fiction with a bit of mystery thrown in. I loved the premise of this book - a wealthy man's attorney hires a man to hid 17 parcels around the United States. This man, Austin, is only allowed to hide one package per month and is given specific instructions on what to do once the package is hidden. Eighteen months later, Austin goes back to his normal delivery job. When the billionaire dies, his children, with the help of Austin, must locate all 17 packages before they can learn what their father has done with the estate.

My favorite character, Austin, is a quirky man who doesn't ask questions. I cannot imagine having this job and not demanding to know more - or not snooping to discover what was in the boxes! On the other hand, I would love to have an 18 month adventure that took me all over the country!

It's a fun read that keeps you guessing until the end.
