"Outstanding...A fun-to-read mixture of homicide and
humor." THE PITTSBURGH PRESS In this, the seventh
adventure in the Claire Malloy series, Claire discovers a
lot about her late, unlamented husband. The viperish
family matriarch, Miss Justicia, gives a preview of her
latest will at the decaying family estate in Louisiana.
From snobbish Cousin Maxie and timid, tippling Pauline to
beautiful Ellie and her porky dad, the Malloys appear a
poisonous lot--and appeareances in this case are not

in the bayou, Claire is certain that one of them assisted
the old lady to her death. And snakes, snipers, and
tapeworms notwithstanding, she's prepared to prove it....
