I Know What You Bid Last Summer by Sherry Harris is the fifth book in the “Sarah Winston Garage Sale” mystery series. Publisher: Kensington, coming February 27, 2018
Sherry Harris presents the fifth installment of this charming, bestselling cozy mystery series! One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. But finding that treasure can be murder. As Sarah Winston discovers, someone is always ready to kill someone else for seemingly worthless pieces of junk.
FOUL PLAY IN THE GYM
When it comes to running a successful garage sale, Sarah Winston believes in doing her homework. She also believes in giving back. But when she agrees to manage an athletic equipment swap, she doesn’t bargain on an uncharitable killer. The day of the event, the school superintendent is found dead in the gymnasium.
HAS SARAH PLAYING DEFENSE
Suddenly the murder suspects are the school board members–including the husband of a very difficult client who’s hired Sarah to run a high-end sale and demands she do her bidding. In between tagging and haggling, Sarah studies the clues to see who wanted to teach the superintendent a lesson. But as she closes in on the truth, the killer intends to give her a crash course on minding her own business . . .
I love a series that adds humor when one is needed and that’s what I find in the latest adventures of Sarah Winston that has her off and running to find a killer who has more than nefarious misdeeds on their mind.
I like the way the author thinks and writes pulling me into a mystery where anyone could be the killer and it’s the path the author takes with the narrative that makes this book engaging and a fun read. The author did a good job in smattering clues that exposed many people who become suspects and it was those strategically placed twists and turns that had me quickly reading because I had to know whodunit. I enjoyed watching Sarah fit the various pieces of the puzzle onto the canvass that is her town and I liked watching a new side to Sarah which made her a stronger person. This is one of the best book in this delightfully charming series and I look forward to more garage sale mayhem with Sarah and her friends.

Yay!!! Been waiting for this one. I know what I’m doing when it arrives!
Love this series and am anxious to read Book 5!
Really enjoy this series and it’s time for book 5 already, which means I am anxious to read the next installment in an always fun to read mystery. Sarah is a smart lady and loves to put the pieces of a puzzle together, so this series is always a great read. I love reading of Sarah’s personal life that is intertwined into the story. Guessing there will be plenty of twists and turns to keep me involved.
I always look forward to a new book by Sherry Harris. The covers always catch my eye and once I open the book it’s not unusual to lose some sleep as I want to know who what and why.
This is one of my favorite series, I adore the character.,
