Publisher's summary

The New York Times best-selling author of Dead with the Wind and Bless Her Dead Little Heart is back with more of those sleuthing Southern belles, the Ducote sisters.

An'gel and Dickce Ducote, busy with plans for the Athena Garden Club's spring tour of grand old homes, are having trouble getting the other club members to help. The rest of the group is all aflutter now that dashing and still-eligible Hadley Partridge is back to restore his family mansion. But the idle chatter soon turns deadly serious when a body turns up on the Partridge estate after a storm.

The remains might belong to Hadley's long-lost sister-in-law, Callie, whom everyone thought ran off with Hadley years ago. And if it's not Callie, who could it be? As the Ducotes begin uncovering secrets, they discover that more than one person in Athena would kill to be Mrs. Partridge. Now An'gel and Dickce will need to get their hands dirty if they hope to reveal a killer's deep-buried motives before someone else's name is mud.

Great story…

Love these characters, no matter which series they’re in— but kept wishing/expecting Charlie & Diesel to jump in & solve the murders ❤️

such fun

these stories are so interesting. it took me until the very end to figure out the killer. I could do with a little less bickering, but other than that, a superb story.

Always a pleasure...

To spend time with the DeCote sisters. Having been born in the Deep South, these books and The Cat in the Stacks Series bring me back home with their atmospheric tales. The narrator’s painful accents are worth wading through for an entertaining tale.
