Rating: Summary: Good Southern mystery Review: As a person from the South, I enjoyed the Southern colloquialisms in this book! I'm not much of a mystery reader, but I enjoyed this one. Good beach reading...
Rating: Summary: Good Southern mystery Review: Laura and Richard Fleming are called home to Byerly, North Carolina because Laura's grandfather, Paw, who raised her after her parents death, had a serious accident. Paw is semiconscious in the hospital and tells Laura that he didn't fall, he was pushed. A young local woman also went missing about the same time. Soon after, Paw dies and Laura is determined to bring his killer to justice. Laura has always felt like an outsider in her family and the possibility that one of them murdered her much loved grandfather can either bring the family together or blow them apart completely.I wish that I had read this mystery first, it explains alot of the family dynamics for the later books. It is also a first rate mystery and I highly recommend it.

Rating: Summary: Moves as slow as Mayberry RFD Review: Talk about molassas. This book takes forever to read, because it is boring. There are way too many aunts and uncles to keep track of, and in the end, I didn't care who the killer was. Paw clings to life in the hospital for over half the book, while we wait for the anticipated murder to finalize. The back cover promises a deep dark family secret will emerge, but it came with a whimper. Sorry, I wanted to like this book. But it just didn't do much for me.
