Items related to Bones of a Feather: A Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery
When PI Sarah Booth Delaney and her partner and best friend, Tinkie, take on Monica and Eleanor Levert as clients, they don’t have much hope of solving the case. The wealthy heiresses of Briarcliff in Natchez, Mississippi, claim that a family necklace worth four million dollars has been stolen, and they think that they can hurry the insurance payout if a reputable PI investigates. Sarah Booth has her doubts, and not just about the payout. All of the evidence suggests that the sisters might be committing fraud.
But when they have just started scratching the surface on the sordid past of the Levert family and the blood money that all of their wealth was founded upon, Monica goes missing. The police suspect that the heiresses are playing more games, and Eleanor isn’t doing anything to make them think any different.
But how can she? If she says or does anything besides pass on the insurance money to the kidnappers, they’ll kill Monica.
With a family history that runs deep and dark and a twisting plot where no one is exactly what they seem, Sarah Booth and Tinkie are the Levert sisters' best and only hope in Bones of a Feather, the latest in Carolyn Haines sparkling Southern mystery series.

About the Author:
Southern P.I. Sarah Booth Delaney tries to untangle the twisted schemes of twin sisters in the strangest case yet in Carolyn Haines's award-winning series.
A ruby necklace worth four million dollars appears to have been stolen, and its owners, Monica and Eleanor Levert―twin heirs of a wealthy Natchez clan―seem a bit too anxious to get their hands on the insurance money. It sounds a tad suspicious to Sarah Booth, who's been asked to file a report, but she can't be sure someone's committing fraud―or any other crime, for that matter―until one of the sisters is kidnapped...
"A LESSON IN LYING, MISSISSIPPI STYLE...with great dollops of charm." ―Kirkus Reviews
The police suspect the heiresses are playing some sort of game. But when Sarah Booth and her partner Tinkie begin to scratch the surface of the family's sordid past, they uncover more skeletons than any one closet can hold. Throw in a sneaky romantic gardener, a lurid tell-all biographer, and a body plunging off a plantation cliff, and the kidnapped twin plot thickens. But Sarah Booth really starts seeing double when Jitty the ghost shows up―as a pair of sisters―and two crimes become deadlier than one...
"REMINISCENT OF JANET EVANOVICH'S STEPHANIE PLUM NOVELS." ―Providence Journal-Bulletin
