A Southern Cozy Mystery with Dogs, Eccentric Great Aunts, and Small-Town Secrets
Ro Bergeron thought managing her Louisiana bed and breakfast-with three opinionated dogs, a revolving door of guests, and two great-aunts who treat hypochondria like a hobby-was enough excitement. But when a decades-old disappearance resurfaces in Belle Bayou, Ro's world turns upside down. Locals say Terry Richardson ran off with his girlfriend. Ro, Min, and Win? They suspect murder.
As the town buzzes over an upcoming Civil War reenactment, Ro and her auntie sleuth squad quietly uncover secrets someone preferred hidden. With orthopedic shoes squeaking, cats weaving underfoot, and Southern gossip moving faster than a Neptune Aqua Cadillac, the Rascoe ladies are on the case-armed with curiosity, sass, and just enough grit to ruffle Belle Bayou's genteel feathers.
Perfect for fans of animal cozies, amateur sleuths, and Southern small-town whodunits.
This book is the second in the Three Dog Mystery Series.
Autorentext
Jann Franklin lives in the small town of Grand Cane, Louisiana. Over three hundred other people also live in Grand Cane, and many of Jann's chapters came from her weekly visits at the downtown coffee shop. She would like it on the record that Grand Cane's current mayor and aldermen are nothing like the characters in her book. They are definitely larger than life, but in a good way.
She and her husband John enjoy Sundays at Grand Cane Baptist Church, dinner with family and friends, and watching the lightning bugs in their backyard. Their kids come to visit, when they aren't too busy living their big-city lives.
She graduated from high school in Russellville, another small town in Arkansas. She obtained her accounting degree from Baylor University in Waco, Texas and moved to Dallas in 1989. She still dabbles in accounting but has taken up writing to satisfy her creative side. Like Jen Guidry, she never appreciated her small-town upbringing until she was encouraged to move back to one. Now she cannot imagine living any other way.
If you ever make it to Grand Cane, stop by 4C Coffee Shop and say "hi." Rhonda Cox and her employees make amazing coffee, and they will save a seat and a smile for you.
