WELCOME TO SOUTH CAROLINA, WHERE THE HOSPITALITY IS WARM AND THE MURDER IS STONE-COLD.

Attorney sleuth Avery Andrews is back in her humdrum hometown of Dacus, South Carolina.

The only problem is she's swapped illustrious city cases for a town where the biggest news is a pig on the loose.

And while there's no end to the people queuing outside her door for help, paying clients are scarce.

Or so she thinks.

A woman enters Avery's office claiming her husband is accusing her of poisoning him.

From beyond the grave.

Then the mystery deepens as dead bodies begin to turn up. Each victim received a letter accusing them of various evil deeds shortly before they met their maker.

This is just the kind of case Avery can't wait to get her hands on.

But Avery is about to be re-acquainted with the dark side of her cozy little town. And she better be ready for everything it's about to throw her way.

This southern cozy murder mystery is perfect for fans of Where the Crawdads Sing, J.M. Hall, Katie Gayle and Faith Martin.

MEET OUR ATTORNEY SLEUTH
Avery Andrews is a thirty-something lawyer whose moral code wouldn't let her allow an expert witness to lie on the stand, even to win her case. She's lost her job as a malpractice defense attorney with a large city firm and has returned to her humdrum hometown to figure out what she does next. Her family wants her to stay, but she's not so sure that's a good idea.

THE SETTING
The Blue Ridge Mountain Mysteries are small-town Southern US mysteries, a love letter to the author's hometown - though with the outrageousness ramped up and the crimes more twisty than what really happens. South Carolina is a tiny state but boasts much variety, from the southern reaches of the Appalachian Mountain chain in the northwest corner to historic Charleston on the coast, which is a mix of 17th and 18th century Europe and the Deep South. The importance of family and good food welcome readers into the warm - and sometimes deadly - embrace of the South.
