Elizabeth Poindexter is on the case
In Sharron Martin’s debut novel Murder Sings Out, a small Georgia town in the bloom of springtime faces a horrifying and unlikely scenario: someone is strangling the choir members of the St. Thomas Episcopal Church.
After the corpse of the philandering wife of the local bank president is found behind the organ in the church, everybody’s a suspect. Assistant District Attorney Michael Davonport, charged with solving the case, turns to his secret weapon—his crime-solving grandmother. In a race against time, Elizabeth and Michael hurry to solve the killer’s identity before he (or she) can strike again.
This thrilling whodunit is sure to keep you guessing until the very end. Along the way, you will meet the lively inhabitants of Chickasaw, including the unforgettable Felicity Peach, who puts a new spin on the term “colorful character;” Father Jackson, the salty-tongued priest; and Beulah Dinworthy, a soprano who truly acts on behalf of a higher power.
For fans of easy-to-read mysteries with a hint of Southern-fried culture, Murder Sings Out is a great book to pick up—and not put down.
