Publisher's summary

Sarah Booth Delaney knows the perfect way to begin recovering from both the recent attack on Scott Hampton's blues club and her broken heart. She's going to host a Thanksgiving feast for all of her friends at her ancestral home in Zinnia, Mississippi. But one bitterly cold night, with the holiday just around the corner, Sarah Booth awakens to the insistent ring of her doorbell. She opens the door to find a newborn baby in a basket sitting on her front porch - and a pool of blood slowly seeping out from the basket. Before she can respond, an engine guns, and a dark vehicle takes off.

After the police and a doctor ensure the baby is otherwise safe and healthy, Sarah Booth calls Tinkie Richmond, her partner at the Delaney Detective Agency. They know they need to do everything they can to find the baby's mother...even if they are starting to fall in love with the baby themselves. But as they track the baby's mother, Sarah Booth soon begins to suspect the woman might have been in danger; in fact she might have been running for her life. And following in the woman's footsteps, Sarah Booth might find her own life on the line next.

Much better than the last couple books!

This book is much better than the last few which, to much silly romance and not very good mystery plot. Almost didn't get this one, but glad I did!

Loved it!

I have read (or listened to) all of Carolyn Haines' Sarah Booth Delaney mysteries and never fail to be entertained. I am from Mississippi and love the tales of the Mississippi Delta. Keep these delightful books coming!

Great Storyline

Tinky has always amused me. This was the first time that she's done sonething to make me gasp and shake my head. I was very surprised at her initial decision. Great writing.

Another good hit

This was one of the best 'Bone" books yet! way to go Ms Haines! There were multiple plots and we'll developed characters to enjoy.

Love This Series

another great Sarah Booth Delaney Adventure. A lot of interesting things going on in this book. Lots of Edge of your seat moments. I love the reference to the bounty hunters being Clint Purcell and Dave ( Robicheaux).
