Publisher's summary

From the author of the bestselling Liz Talbot Mystery Series comes a novel about family and secrets, and the lengths we’ll go to in order to protect both.

Can this charming do-gooder carry the day?

Charleston, SC. Hadley Cooper has a big heart. So when the easygoing private investigator gets a request from a new friend to stake out her husband’s extramarital activities, she immediately begins surveillance. And when her client is discovered dead on her kitchen floor, the Southern spitfire is certain the cheater is the culprit … even though he has the perfect alibi: Hadley herself. Flustered since she observed the cad four hours away in Greenville at the time of the murder, the determined PI desperately searches for clues to tie him to the crime. But when her ex-boyfriend, who happens to be the lead detective on the case, arrests a handy suspect, Hadley fears a guilty man is about to walk free. Can this Palmetto State sleuth make an impossible connection to prevent a miscarriage of justice? With dry wit and delightful dialogue, Susan M. Boyer delivers an eccentric, vegan gumshoe sure to appeal to any fan of Southern women’s fiction. With her merry band of sassy friends, Hadley Cooper is a Lowcountry detective you won’t soon forget. Big Trouble on Sullivan’s Island is the engaging first book in the Carolina Tales series. If you like strong heroines, quirky sisterhoods, and plenty of Southern charm, then you’ll love Susan M. Boyer’s wonderful whodunit.

Loved it!

This is a great mystery that keeps you guessing. I thoroughly enjoyed how clean the writing was and that I did not have to stop listening when my Littles were in the car. Can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Great read

This is a fabulous read and awesome story line. I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Excellent book

This was a great read! I thought I would miss the Stella Maris characters but this is even better because it’s referring to real places and landmarks. I especially like the Audible version because finally there is a narrator who is able to correctly pronounce the Charleston names. I am really happy to have Greenville SC be a part of this book, as at least a 5th generation Greenvillian.

Another great novel from Susan M. Boyer.

I just finished the Audible version and am left with a Now What? feeling. It was so good. The narrator nailed the characters and gave them each distinctive personality and voices. The story involves many characters, but you get to know them all. The story kept me involved until the very end. it has been a long time since I enjoyed a story this much.

NEXT??

This was the best since Liz Talbot retired. Can't wait for the series to bloom!

Enjoyed it so much I listened to it twice!

I thoroughly enjoyed the story line & characters. The author does a fantastic job of developing each character. Her descriptions of Charleston and Sullivan’s Island allowed me to imagine I was walking along the streets or beach. I look forward to future books in the series.

Excellent read
