Upgraded for Murder - Carolyn Ridder Aspenson - Bog

"Steel Magnolias meets The Golden Girls!" Lily Sprayberry Solves Crimes...
And sets up murders? As cozy mystery enthusiasts know all too well, sometimes even the most idyllic small towns can have a dark side. I never would have guessed that I'd find myself at the center of a murder investigation, but that's exactly where I am. Now, let me set the record straight: I didn't do it. But my recommendation for a handyman to fix up the late Buck Haverty's place has landed someone else in hot water. I can't shake the feeling that Bubba, the accused, is being set up. Unfortunately, my sheriff husband isn't convinced. He's warned me to stay out of it, but when have I ever been good at following orders? As I start to dig deeper into the case, I find myself facing some seriously shady characters who are none too pleased with my meddling. Thankfully, I've got a secret weapon: the cozy and quirky residents of Bramblett County. Sure, most of them are retired and like to spend their afternoons sipping sweet tea at Millie's, the local gossip and grub hangout, but don't let their age fool you. These seniors have plenty of tricks up their sleeves, and they're not afraid to use them to help me solve this mystery and clear Bubba's name. So, despite the danger, I'm ready to roll up my sleeves and get to work. After all, justice must be served, and I'm not one to back down from a challenge, even if it means putting myself in harm's way.
