Sabine LeVeche couldn't be having a worse day; the ghost of
her best friend's dead mother-in-law (yep, you heard me
right), has just shown up and Sabine knows that can't be
good news. Where Helena Henry appears, trouble is certain
to follow. Sure enough, Sabine is dying.
In need of a blood relative fast, Sabine hires tough and
sexy P.I. Beau Villeneuve to track down her kin. Beau knows
from experience that finding lost family members can often
bring more grief than joy to the person searching for their
roots. He fears this will be the case with Sabine and not
knowing why she is desperate to find her family, he tries
to talk her out of the search. Beau isn't the only one who
wants Sabine to leave the past alone. A series of attacks
on Sabine convinces Beau there is something about Sabine's
family history someone will kill to keep secret.
Light-hearted and very funny at times, MISCHIEF IN MUDBUG
moves along at a breakneck pace. Although this is book two
in the series, new readers won't have trouble keeping up.
The characters from book one are very much in evidence and
their backstory is explained. The ghost is central to the
story and I have a feeling will be in more Mudbug stories
to follow. A breezy mystery with romance overtones will
keep you turning the pages.
Everyone in Mudbug, Louisiana, knows that when Helena
Henry shows up, no good will come of it. Especially now
that Helena is dead. And more meddlesome than ever.
Sabine LeVeche needs to locate a blood relative fast—her
life depends on it. Her only ally is the smart-mouthed
ghost of Helena Henry. Until Beau Villeneuve agrees to
take the case. The super-sexy PI is a master at finding
missing persons—and all the spots that make Sabine weak in
the knees. But as they start to uncover the truth about
the past, it becomes clear that someone out there wants to
bury Sabine along with all her parents’ secrets. And she
realizes what they say is true: family really can be the
death of you.
