reviewed on + 988 more book reviews


The wedding went off without a hitch, but the morning after was murder. As maid of honor, Elizabeth Parker hoped the corpse she'd stumbled over wouldn't jinx her best friend Bridget's marriage. But at the historic Richmond plantation, where the bride's extended and clearly divided, deceiving and duplicitous family has gathered, somebody's out for blood.

The first victim, the conniving trophy wife of the bride's uncle, was a viper in lipstick. Loathed by all, Roni had wanted her ailing husband to sell the family business. Elizabeth would have to channel her inner Jane Austen to cut through the flurry of lace, lies and larceny among Bridget's family. Especially when someone tries to frame her by planting Roni's diamond necklace in her room. Strange twists, another dead body and a new suspect point Elizabeth in the direction of the darker truth - one she may just take to her grave.
