“Gone with the Wind fans will cozy up to this tale” of phony belles, reckless cads, and murder most Southern—first in the Literary Tour Mystery series (Mystery Scene).
Fresh from an ugly divorce, feisty Delilah Dickinson has high hopes for her new life and career, opening a literary-tour travel agency in Atlanta. First pick: Georgia’s literary darling and Pulitzer Prize winner Margaret Mitchell. First stop: an old plantation modeled after Tara from Gone with the Wind—complete with an elegant dinner and dance and a company of game actors. But things go south fast.
The mustachioed ham playing Rhett Butler is found dead in the garden, the victim of a fatal dose of Southern inhospitality. Before anyone can even think “Where shall I go? What shall I do?” Delilah’s son-in-law becomes a suspect and she takes over the investigation to clear his name. Now, holed up in a mansion with a full cast of characters, it’s up Delilah to find which took on the role of a killer.
“In classic Agatha Christie fashion . . . Amusing, breathlessly quick.” —Publishers Weekly
