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.

I've never read this author before and I really enjoyed this book. It's a cozy mystery, perfect for a rainy afternoon. I do want to read more of this Thoroughly Southern Mystery series and have requested two more books. If you like the cozy mystery I know you'll like reading about the Yarbroughs and the rest of the characters in Hope County, Georgia. This book has a clever plot.
