De: Ramey James

Narrado por: Tiffany Morgan

It’s Halloween in Hoochville, and it’s a two-for-one deal at the Shady Grove Cemetery. Unfortunately there was only a reservation for one.

When a dead body is discovered in the freshly prepared grave of a prominent Hoochville community leader during the weeklong Harvest Festival celebration, the unexpected death is ruled a suicide. But Sadie and her friends think otherwise. It’s all tricks and no treats this year as Juniper, the dead woman’s niece, appears to be targeted as the next victim.

Sadie’s as busy as a one-armed paper hanger, trying to prove Ginny’s suicide was really a murder while keeping her niece safe, all while navigating her first Harvest Festival celebration in Hoochville in over a decade. Can she survive Punkin’ Chunkin’, the Buckshot Blast, and the Haunted Fluff-n-Stuff long enough to crack the case?

· Multi-generational cozy murder mystery
· Quirky Southern small-town shenanigans
· Ride-or-die female friendships
· Adorable pets and cozy crafts

Ewes and Eulogies is a craft and hobby cozy mystery full of humor, friendship, beloved pets, and found family. Join Sadie Sexton as she takes over her grandmother’s yarn shop and reluctantly becomes an amateur sleuth, determined to defend her loved ones and neighbors against false murder charges in her small Southern hometown of Hoochville, Tennessee.

Fantastic Read!

This book was so entertaining and imagining all the costumes during the harvest week festival was a blast. can't wait for the next one!

It's never a dull moment in Hoochville!

Another great Ramey James book that has you wondering who did it and why, while laughing at the antics that befalls Sadie and her friends. The relationships are awesome and the storyline was great! Always looking forward to saying hi to Elvis :) While this is a standalone book, you would be missing out on a lot of great scenes if you didn't start from the beginning.

Halloween Hijinks and Murder Abound

A wonderful romp with old friends celebrating Halloween and hijinks! I love Sadie and her posse of ride or die friends including Ewenice, Elvis and Oreo Speedwagon! An absolutely hilarious read worthy of every minute invested in Hoochville!

Another winner for this amazing team.

The narrator is their usual and does a great job.

She was honoring a friend's husband at the funeral when a shocking thing happened. Yep you guessed it--another dead body. The location is even more shocking. You will have to read to get all the information.

The hilarity with this group of women is amazing. They are determined to find the killer. Since the police think it's suicide they are done. She sheriff is in love with Sadie so all is not done.

Be ready laugh a lot, to share her friend's sorrow, danger, and watch while their group joins the town's festival and gets in danger trying to solve it.

Graves, gossip, and good times

Returning to the world of Hoochville is always a blast. This fifth installment was filled with so much chaos it kept me hooked till the very end. An unexpected dead body found in a grave has the rumor mill in a tizzy in this small town.

Sadie, Clem, and Dot are on the case…sorta. While this case is being investigated the town is also celebrating their yearly Harvest Festival celebration for the entire week. It was hilarious to imagine the outfits that Sadie, and her friends were wearing along with the competition.

The narrator, Tiffany Morgan does a great job portraying the southern twang of the characters. The tones and inflections were great and really elevated the story for me.

If you’re looking for a southern cozy mystery, with the bestest gals and found family be sure to pick this series up.
