Wickedly witty and full of more dirt than a debutante’s
diary, the mysteries of Carolyn Haines bring the southern
Delta to roaring, rollicking life...
Intrepid P.I. Sarah Booth Delaney has been known to single-
handedly save her family’s Mississippi plantation, converse
with Dahlia House’s ghost, and capture a killer or two. But
when a local girl is found dead in a cotton field, it's
enough to make a lady toss back a Bloody Mary before noon
on Sunday.
Someone held twenty-three-year-old Quentin McGee’s face
down in the rich Southern soil until she suffocated. The
lawmen think Quentin’s lover killed her. When the suspect’s
brother hires Sarah to prove his sibling innocent, Sarah
quickly learns that the victim had plenty of wealthy,
powerful enemies. Each had a bone to pick with Quentin for
writing a scandalous exposé on her hometown. Adding spice
to the gumbo is the news that Quentin was due to inherit
the family fortune the day after she was killed...and that
a second book was in the works. From illicit lovers and
outraged families to slandered aristocrats, everyone is a
suspect—and no one is safe…
