Medals in the attic
"Annie Dawson is enjoying rummaging through the jumble of memorabilia, old toys, and discarded furniture in the attic of Grey Gables, the stately Victorian house in Stoney Point, Maine, that she has inherited from her grandmother. But when she discovers a carved wooden case holding two World War II military medals she is dumbfounded...and troubled. Grandpa Holden's military service medals are on full display in the living room. Are these also Grandpa's? If so, why are they hidden away where no one can see them? And if not, whose are they? Why have they been kept in secret in the attic of Grey Gables all these years?"--Publisher's description.

I had a really hard time getting into this book. The writing is very simplistic like a elementary level chapter book. I had to make myself keep reading hoping it would get better. It did get better toward the end but the majority of the book was very dull. I just didn't want to skip it since I didn't want to miss any details that might show up in later books in the series. The writing in this book was also annoying with a lot of incomplete sentences and other issues. It was like the author was trying to prove she could write a book that broke the rules taught in school. Anyway, the story itself wasn't bad and I'm glad I read it so I can pass this on to someone else.
Annie has been working through boxes in her grandmother's attic. With the community auction coming up soon she is searching for the right items to donate. During her search she comes upon a box of medals, one obviously a Purple Heart, the other she is not sure. What's weird is her grandfather's medals are already on display downstairs. So...who do these belong to and why are they in her grandmother's attic?
It's been a while since I've read more of this series and what a perfect way to return to it. Without realizing it...I ended up with a military style cozy mystery
