Product Description

Product Description

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 they 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.



Ingram

Inquisitive sisters-turned-amateur sleuths Mary Alice and Patricia Anne return as they probe the mysterious ""suicide"" of their luncheon guest, a nosy genealogist who may have uncovered a host of shameful secrets and scandals. Original."

5.0 out of 5 stars A Mystery Series You Will Never Forget..., April 1 2004
By K. A. Stevenson "WIAPilot" (Tucson) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"Murder Runs in the Family" is the third book in the eight-book mystery series featuring the "Southern Sisters." Sadly, Anne George passed away in 2001 and it's a shame that readers will no longer have new, witty dialogues. If you have not read this series - I urge you to order them all and read them in sequence. You will not regret it!

In this book, we find the brash, bold, extra-large Mary Alice in preparation for her daughter's first wedding. Deborah is marrying a former student of her Aunt Patricia Anne's who may also be the former father of her twins as he donated sperm to the clinic! It is funny in a good, clean sort of way. It depicts middle-America at its finest.

Mary Alice finds a little romance of her own in "Murder Runs in the Family" as does Patricia Anne's widowed daughter - Haley. Fred and Patricia Anne make you believe in "happily ever after" as they celebrate 40 years of marriage.

Patricia Anne is constantly amazed at the transformations of her former students. In this book, she amazes herself as she delves into a little geneology.

This is a DELIGHTFUL series. I promise you. You will NOT be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE ALL THESE BOOKS, Aug 17 2002
By kathryn e wales "masters@knology.net" (Evans, Georgia United States) - See all my reviews
I have been in mourning since the loss of Anne George! I can't find another writer I love so much. I feel kind of empty knowing she's not with us. Every single book is so refreshing and the characters are people you would love to run around with. I can't say enough about any of them. For those of you who have never read one of her books, order the entire set, you will never regret it! There are no better people than Mouse and Sister! They lift your spirits and make you laugh out loud!
