A Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery, Book 27

By: Carolyn Haines

Narrated by: Kate Forbes

The latest novel in the series that Kirkus Reviews characterizes as “Stephanie Plum meets the Ya-Ya Sisterhood” featuring sassy Southern private investigator Sarah Booth Delaney.

Delaney Detective Agency gets a taste of the spotlight when they are called to a case on a movie set in Greenville, MS, right on the Mississippi River. Marlon Brandon, heir to a wealthy and influential political family, has brought a film crew to town to film a drama about the 1927 flood that submerged a great deal of Greenville. Marlon wants the world to know the story of the flood—and the heroic role the Brandon ancestors played in rescuing dozens of local residents from drowning.

Or at least that was the plan until he disappeared. If this weren't concerning enough, the situation appears even more dire when a severed foot is discovered in the Mississippi River, and clues indicate that Marlon may have fallen victim to a freak bull shark attack.

But as rumors swirl around the Delta about Marlon's motives for making the film, Sarah Booth and Tinkie have to wonder whether a shark is to blame, or an equally ferocious human offender. The show must go on, and Sarah Booth and her crew will have to investigate all manner of creatures, over land and sea, in order to solve the mystery and save the day.

Love these books

Another good one in the series. Love these strong women. Icing on the cake was that her new car is a Subaru Solterra EV. Love mine! Way to go Sarah Booth and Coleman!

GREAT

I love this series. I feel like I know the characters and can’t wait for the next book so I can hear about what they are doing. This book was even better. I couldn’t turn it off. The ending was perfect!

Loved this series!

I loved this series, I was hoping it would end with Sarah Booth getting married to Coleman and becoming pregnant.

The making of a movie

Sarah Booth! My favorite PI! She's always determined to get her man! Tinkie is tight there too!

Pushed this plot way into stupidity

I have read or listened to all the previous books. The people in this one were just too stupid to be in the realm of even fantasy.
