Synopsis:

A little Southern charm never killed anybody—until now—in an enchanting cozy mystery from the USA Today bestselling author of Southern Discomfort and the Java Jive novels.

After solving a murder at a local restaurant, Quinn Bellandini just wants to get back to her comfortable life running her grandfather’s B&B in Savannah, Georgia, with her sister, Delilah. But those plans get buried when Quinn and her new boyfriend, Tucker Heyward, dig up an old skeleton while doing some landscaping in his aunt Lela’s backyard. Before long, Lela becomes the prime suspect in the thirty-three-year-old unsolved murder of a high school homecoming queen.

Tucker is devastated. But Quinn’s conscience won’t let her risk an elderly woman spending her twilight years in jail for a crime she didn’t commit. And Delilah, bored by the quiet B&B biz, has been itching to do some more investigating of her own.

Soon they’re questioning a growing list of suspects, from nosy neighbors and snooty Savannah socialites to mild-mannered teachers and old high-school friends of the victim—including Quinn and Delilah’s own parents. But no one is safe from a killer who’s totally old school.

The story starts when Quinn and her boyfriend Tucker unexpectedly uncover human remains while digging out a firepit in his aunt’s backyard. Quinn quickly gets caught up in the investigation, because she doesn’t want Tucker’s Aunt Lela to be accused of the crime. Her sister Delilah is happy to join her for a change of pace.

The mystery is a hard one to solve because the victim disappeared so long ago, and it seems like almost everyone in town has something to hide. The relationship between the two sisters adds so much, and I think I enjoyed the characters and the B&B just as much as the mystery itself.

Southern Harm is only the second book in the Southern B&B Mystery series, so it’s no problem to jump in at this point in the series without having read the first book.
