Search - Who Invited the Dead Man? (Thoroughly Southern Mystery, Bk 3)

Small Southern towns hold a lot of secrets and this one is no exception; what I know I am going to like most about this series is that the main characters are not youngsters and life is somehow real--yes, some characters have old money, but most are just hard-working honest people like the ones I grew up around in my small Southern town. The first two books in the series were not at the library but even starting mid-stream, I am now searching the rest of the volumes. Yes, each seem to be able to stand on their own, but this is a group of people I want to visit over and over again.

This is a pleasant view of small-town southern life, featuring the feed-and-nursery-store-running wife of a southern magistrate. Unfortunately, in the last book, her husband was shot and is still recuperating, so she's now the magistrate. The mystery is cozy but not too cozy and the story hangs together well.

First book in this series that I have read and I enjoyed it. Combines small town southern living, a little romance and a whole lot of murder and suspense all in one neat little book! LOL

Have the next two waiting on me now...

This is the first book in the series. An endearing cast and setting in the South. The Feed and Seed and Nursery store is the setting and the star of the book is sixty something. This is fun mystery with alot of Southern wisdom from the not quite as young group, and fun, lots and lots of fun.

Excellent first book in this series starring MacLearen Yarborough. I would highly recommend it!
