From Publishers Weekly: "Introduced in Just Desserts, Savannah Reid, a Georgia transplant and former cop in Southern California, is having second thoughts about forming the Moonlight Magnolia Detective Agency. Her first case is a man looking for his sister, from whom he was separated as a child. Savannah locates Lisa Mallock and her daughter, Christy, and learns they are hiding from Lisa's abusive ex-husband, Earl. Then Lisa and Christy are abducted, and Savannah, certain that her investigation led to the crime, feels responsible. After she finds Lisa's mutilated body in a remote fishing resort, the Moonlight Magnolia Agency, including Savannah's former police partner Dirk, mobilizes to find Christy before she too is harmed. Savannah's visiting Granny Reid is unable to stand idly by and adds her country bromides to the proceedings. Despite the fact that the police are on the verge of arresting her every step of the way, the dessert-loving Savannah and her motley team of investigators manage to save the day and pull off a light, satisfying tale."

I've read almost all of the books in this series and I think this is definitely one of the best. This is an enjoyable series, easy reading and the characters are absolutely delightful.
This was the first book of this author's that I have read and I enjoyed it very much...an easy read. I'll be looking for other books by this author.

P.I. Savannah Reid has her first case, finding the long lost sister of a real estate broker. Then murder enters the picture. Savannah must call upon all her resources to sort out clues, clear her own name and corner a killer whose appetite for murder is growing every day.
Savannah is a great character and this book shows her in an interesting case that will keep you guessing

Pound for pound, Savannah Reid is the best detective in the business.
The first in a series.
