Duffy Brown books never disappoint and Lethal in Old Lace is another gem. She has plenty of quirky characters and over the top situations to keep the reader absorbed in southern charm along with a curious mystery.
There are two social functions in Savannah guaranteed to get people talking: weddings and funerals. And just as consignment shop owner Reagan Summerside agrees to marry the hunky Walker Boone, her neighbors, sisters Annie Fritz and Elsie Abbot, step up their business as professional mourners. They are so successful that the Sleepy Pines Retirement Center has hired them as a part of their retirement package. But the celebration over good business is cut short when the residents at Pines suddenly begin dying at an alarming rate. And the sisters are the first suspects.
Note: I received the book in exchange for an honest review which did not influence my opinion.
