Summary

Nothing says Welcome Home like a murder.

It’s official. Fortune Redding is out of the CIA and a newly minted resident of Sinful, Louisiana. She never expected her homecoming to be all apple pie and hugs, but a murder wasn’t on her list of things to deal with before she’d even gotten her name stenciled on her mailbox.

Boone Carre-Hooch, to the locals - was a drunk and a louse and had shafted pretty much everyone he’d ever done business with. So when someone kills him, there is no shortage of suspects. Unfortunately, Ally is at the top of the list.

Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie know that Ally isn’t capable of murdering anyone, but with an ambitious ADA looking to make a name for himself, and the local gossip train intent on finding someone to blame, they know they have to find the killer and clear Ally’s name.

Great!

I thoroughly enjoyed the book, found myself smiling and laughing a good portion of the book. Jana has a great knack of making the people in her books come alive! Cassandra’s narration is perfect.

This Series Needs to be Televised!

This has got to be the most heartwarming, and hysterical volume of the Miss Fortune series! It’s a cross between The Golden Girls and an NCIS clone! Just the right type of novel to cheer you up with its lighthearted, improbable incidents!

The author’s writing style is infectious, just like the humour. I look forward to each new episode in the series...

Cassandra Harris Makes Sinful Believable....Again!

Sinful's own Three Musketeers (3Ms)are at it again! When an unpopular resident dies and Ally is blamed, they kick into action (along with Gerties purse/handbag) and set out to find the culprit.
Carter is there (but no emotional hoo-ha) and I am starting to like him a lot more. He is becoming more three dimensional, and not just a foil for Fortune. And yes, he still turns up right on cue when the 3Ms are in major trouble, have caught someone suspect, or are about to delve into the shadier side of things.
Celia is so objectionable her reaction to finding out Fortune is not SandySue is a classic.
Deputy Bro/Brogh/Brow (sorry, Audible version, so don't know correct spelling) also has one scene that shows his character a little more.

Cassandra Harris is the most fabulous narrator. Each character has a different and believable voice. How she manages the multiperson conversations I will never know. Such a talented lady and without whom, I would not want to listen to any more of the series. Full Stop.

Reel of Fortune

Another crazy caper when someone is wrongfully accused, and then need to find out who the real killer is so the town will stop picking on Ally. Read brilliantly again by Cassandra Campbell.
