Professor Olive Twist has come to Zinnia, Mississippi to
study a mysterious grave wherein lies the Lady in Red, a
perfectly preserved and stunningly beautiful but unnamed and
unclaimed body. Olive claims she can not only identify the
corpse, she can also prove the woman’s scandalous role in
the nation’s history. Olive takes it a step too far, though,
when she starts connecting elite Zinnia families with the
same scandal.
Dander up, Zinnia’s society ladies know only one way to
handle Olive: they call on the private investigative
services of Sarah Booth Delaney. But Olive’s real agenda is
clear as Mississippi mud, and when Sarah Booth discovers a
present-day dead body, she knows there’s more than just
family pride and Southern heritage at stake. If she can’t
find the murderer and fast, it might just be Sarah Booth's
life on the line next.
Carolyn Haines pulls out all the stops in Smarty Bones, the
next charming, sassy, Southern-fried Sarah Booth Delaney
mystery.
