Publisher's summary

Anne George’s delightful mysteries combine humor and suspense in equal measure.

Patricia Anne and Mary Alice are “60-something” twin sisters who, after years of sibling rivalry, have discovered a mutual interest in folk art. However, Patricia Anne never dreamed that attending a gallery opening would land them in the middle of a murder investigation. Patricia Anne, a retired school teacher, is pleasantly surprised to see that Claire, a former student, is in charge of the show.

The next day her surprise turns to shock when she hears that the gallery owner has died under suspicious circumstances, and she finds Claire huddled on her front porch. Claire claims to have narrowly survived an attack on her own life. But when the local art critic also dies mysteriously, Patricia Anne decides it’s high time someone gets to the bottom of things. And she is just the person to do it.

Ruth Ann Phimister’s inspired reading captures all the good, clean fun of Murder on a Bad Hair Day while building the suspense to a fever pitch.

Keeps getting better

Patricia Anne is the ultimate Southern lady who raised her family in the fifties of Birmingham, Alabama, and now is enjoying her golden years. Her descriptions of that city are are spot on and her manners southern perfect with a soupçon of humor underneath it all. They are enchanting: warts, murders, loving and bickering family, and all.

Listen to 'em all!

The worst thing about this series is that it is closed. 😔 Oh how I wish there were more. All of these books are wonderful: plot, lots of humor, great characters, great character development, and a FABULOUS narrator.

Good if you’re patient

Wraps up at the end pretty abruptly, but I was fine with that. It was entertaining.

Wonderful Story

All of this series is wonderful. It is even more fun to listen to the Audiobook because the narrator makes the characters come to life.

My favorite series of all time! Very enjoyable!

I love the Southern Sisters Mysteries! I have listened to them many many times over the years. The characters are great and you really can't wait to see what happens next! I also enjoyed the narrator so much that I sought out other books she narrated. You will love this series and the characters! Every book in the series is a great read.
