An OWL Ladies Cozy Mystery. A warm and witty turn-of-the-century Texas cozy mystery

Minnie Mae Harper has learned one thing from the last time McKinney had a body: don’t move until you’ve got something to move with.

It’s February 1900, and the square is strung with paper hearts and fiddle music for the Ladies Aid Society’s Valentine’s Day Square-Dance-a-thon. Three nights. The whole county. And Amos Pruitt who is caller, collector of secrets, and the sort of man nobody much liked but everybody tolerated, is found dead behind the Magnolia House before sunrise on day two.

Everybody on that dance floor had reason. And everyone else is pointing fingers.

My husband is dead.

I attended his funeral. I watched his casket be lowered six feet into the ground. (Actually, it may have been only five feet, but that still seems like more than enough.) And then we ate an array of finger sandwiches and deviled eggs and miniature beef wellingtons that cost more than my first car.

My point is, Grant is gone. And so are all his many, many deep, dark secrets which I never really ever bothered to ask him about. He is never coming back.
