It\'s hard enough making ends meet on the pittance Blanche White earns doing day work for the genteel Southern families of North Carolina. But when her fourth bad check lands her a jail sentence, Blanche goes on the lam. She finds work at the summer home of a wealthy family, the members of which have plenty of their own secrets. And when a dead body is discovered, Blanche finds herself the prime suspect. Using her wit and intelligence, she gets to work uncovering the real killer before she lands in more hot water.

I love mysteries. I am posting two additional books in the series by Barbara Neely; \"Blanche Among the Talented Tenth\" and \"Blanche Cleans Up.\" The author\'s books are full of intrigue and humor.
