Wall Street Journal best-selling author Abby L. Vandiver will be talking about her newest mystery, Secrets, Lies and Crawfish Pies, the first in a new series with Henery Press. Publishers Weekly praised its humor, calling it a “snappy series launch” that will have fans looking forward to future exploits. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
In Secrets, Lies and Crawfish Pies, a big-city medical examiner with a small-town past has been downsized and evicted. With few other options, Romaine Wilder is forced to return to her hometown of Roble in East Texas. Suzanne Babet Derbinay, Romaine’s Auntie Zanne and proprietor of the Ball Funeral Home, has long since traded her French Creole upbringing for Big Texas attitude. Hanging on to the magic of her Louisiana roots, she’s cooked up a love potion or two—if she could only get Romaine to drink it. But her plans are derailed when the Ball Funeral Home, bursting at the seams with dead bodies, has a squatter stiff. Auntie Zanne can’t abide a murderer using her funeral home as the dumping grounds for their crimes, and Romaine doesn’t want her newly elected cousin, Sheriff Pogue Folsom, to fail on his first murder case. Together, Romaine and Auntie Zanne set off to solve it.
Vandiver is the author of three other cozy mystery series—Logan Dickerson, Normal Junction and Tiny House, and one mystery sci-fi series. She also penned a historical novel, At the End of the Line, with Kathryn Dionne.
