Mary Alice has spared nothing for her only daughter's wedding-from seventy-five yards of bridal train to gourmet food for over three hundred guests and enough glittering elegance to make Mary Alice think about finding herself a fourth rich husband to pay for it all.
Practical Patricia Anne has put away her aunt of the bride blue chiffon and settled back into domesticity when fun-loving Mary Alice calls to say thdy have a post-wedding date with a genealogist from the groom's side of the family.Lunch is a fascinating lesson on the hazards of finding dirty linens in ancestral boudoirs that ends abruptly when their guest scurries off with the local judge,leaving the sisters with their mouths open- and finishing their luncheon companion's cheesecake-when the police arrive.

Their mysterious guest has taken a plunge from the ninth floor of the courthouse building-an apparent suicide. But given the scandals a nosy genealogist might have uncovered,the sisters are betting that some proud Southern family is making sure their shameful secrets stay buried...along with anyone who tries to dig them up.
