'An indomitable protagonist, a quirky supporting case, and plenty of Southern charm make this mystery a treat.'-Kirkus'McDevitt’s standout follow up to Just Holler Bloody Murder expertly blends romance and mystery...' -BookLife, Editor’s Pick'...a great piece of ’chick-lit’ as well as a mystery story.' -Readers’ Favorite'[A] wonderfully layered story that brings together a fun cast of Southern characters... hard to put down.' -San Francisco Book Review'...lyrical and poetic...(A) wonderfully evocative novel...' -IndieReaderPerfect for fans of Danielle Collins and Aloha Alibi’s Murder Mystery Book Club and Jasmine Webb’s Charlotte Gibson Mysteries series.Ferociously independent biology professor, Callahan Banks, is thirty-two years old, six months pregnant, and happily single living in the wilds of her childhood home on Timicau Island, South Carolina. But there are complications. The baby’s father, a wealthy forty-two-year-old bachelor, Pepper Dade, owns the island and is determined to marry her and raise their child together.When nine-year-old triplets relocate to the island and stumble upon the body of a stranger wrapped in barbed wire and drowned in a tidal creek, the hodgepodge cast of island inhabitants are thrown into a tizzy. From FaLa Jo Digsby, the four-time divorcee who sold Avon from her motorcycle, to Teelia Moultrie, a newly divorced single mother competing for Pepper’s affections, to Chalmers Redpath, a reclusive obstetrician drawing suspicion for his curious architectural eccentricities-everyone on the island seems to have something to hide.When two more bodies are found, tensions on the island reach a fever pitch. Callahan’s due date is nearing. Pepper is growing more frantic, and Teelia is waiting in the wings. Worse yet, the ever-observant Callahan is starting to suspect that the murderer may be one of the island’s own. Will she keep fighting for her freedom or marry a man she may be learning to love? And can she and her young sidekick, Harry Applegate, the bright outlier in the triplet gang, find the murderer in time?
