While I thoroughly enjoyed this installment in the series, I was left wanting more. Sarah Booth kinda bugged me in the fact that she had so little faith. As someone who has lost her parents and aunt and so much more, you would think that she would want to cling to her faith more. Not so. I'm glad to see she's softening up more in later books.

Hallowed Bones (sara Booth Delaney mystery) by Carolyn Haines (rb digital audiobook ) this was probably my favorite book so far. Sara and Twinkie are hired by a nun in New Orleans to help prove that a popular healer did not kill her baby daughter. So off they go to New Orleans where solving the mystery will take them to a tent revival preacher to the governor. Plenty of laughs and an interesting side story await you as well. I’m off to the next book in this series.

Another great Sarah Booth Delaney book!! It was great getting to know more about Tinkie and CECe. Very intriguing case!! This book's tone is not as light-hearted as the others as Sarah Booth has some big should searching to do for herself. A great read and I'm looking forward to the next book!!

Sarah Booth Delaney and her best friend, Tinkie, run a PI business in Zinnia, Mississippi. They are hired by a nun in New Orleans to investigate murder charges brought against Doreen Mallory, who is accused of murdering her disabled daughter. But no one believes Doreen is capable of murder, her entire life is devoted to healing and works of faith. Sarah Booth and Tinkie travel to New Orleans to figure out who benefited from the death of a child who did not have long to live. But what they discover there is confounding, it wasn't the baby who was the target, it was Doreen. Could it be the Senator, looking to eliminate a source of blackmail? Could it be the televangelist, who has lost his faith and his power? Could it be Doreen's business partner, who might be more than he seems? Life is never dull around Sarah Booth and Tinkie and their transgender friend, Cece. Read this series for the setting, the Mississippi Delta in all its glory.

The more I read of this series, the more I truly like it and admire the author. The stories have elements of fun, humour, sincerity, and depth. They are intelligently written and the plots are intricately woven. This book is probably her best in the series so far. I look forward to continuing with the series.
