Description from goodreads :
Southerners keep their secrets swept under the rug, but what happens when that rug goes up for sale?
Bestselling author Berlye Stone, the most famous citizen to ever come out of Cottonwood, Kentucky, has died and put all her worldly possessions up for auction, but not without leaving one more manuscript behind. A hidden tell-all aboutCottonwood
that’s got more gossip than a ladies’ luncheon.
When Beryle’s assistant turns up with an ax in her back and the only witness is in a coma, Sheriff Kenni Lowry reckons someone in town will do anything to keep the manuscript from seeing the light of day. Her poppa’s ghost returns to help piece together the life of the Beryle he once knew, but his memory’s a little foggy, and any misstep could cause them a world of trouble. With the help of Deputy Finn Vincent, can Kenni sort through the secrets buried in Beryle’s books, or will this be her final chapter?

My opinion:
I loved it! Tonya Kappes sure can give us a wonderful setting (Cottonwoods) and a feeling of the south atmosphere and it's a big part of what
i like in the cozy mystery with that area setting even if i'm glad no to live
there at the same time. In this instalment
the mystery was very deep and it's funny
to see so many people wanting to keep their secrets buried, and doing so much
for that, especially when some are quite innocent...then in a town where you
can't do a thing without everybody knowing it in minutes it's already a mystery
that some secrets exist.
The intrigue was very well done and
captivating, now i must say that i'm very curious about the consequences too
but before thinking on book 4 let 's speak about number 3. Really the plot was
great but also the characters interactions, seeing how the town can split for
an election and how Kenni can be a furious woman when she feel betrayed was
really fun, now i'm suspicious of Jenni and i still dislike Lonnie but i've
discovered new character like Hattie who is moving, Kenni's mother is still on
war path too and all that mixes
wonderfully under Tonya writing and deliver a story we want more of.
The pace is just perfect to keep us
hooked alternating between
investigation, mystery and humour and
it's just great!
i do recommend this series if you love
southern mysteries and well written cozy ones.
Score: 4,5/5
