For any and all the moms, aunts, grandmothers, and all-around wonderful ladies in your life this Mother’s Day, why not celebrate with a book that showcases moms who go above and beyond? The characters below are all crime-inspecting, mystery-solving mothers, and we can’t think of a better way to relax this weekend than picking one up for your mom or for yourself.
