Judge MacLaren Yarbrough is the new magistrate of Hope
County, Georgia--appointed to replace her husband, Joe
Riddley, after he receives an injury. But when a local man
is found murdered at Joe's birthday gala, MacLauren almost
ends up on the wrong side of the law. And when she finds
clues that hit too close to home, this savvy Southerner
becomes determined to uncover the roots of the crime--and
clear her family's name.
MacLaren tries to sweet-talk clues out of affluent
matriarchs, shady drifters, and even a disgruntled parrot.
But all her efforts simply raise more questions. How many
secrets can one small town hold? Which party guest and the
strongest motive? And....
Who Invited the Dead Man?

but go ahead if it makes you feel better."
