Items related to Greedy Bones (A Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery)
Sarah Booth Delaney, a Southern belle known for abiding by tradition only when it suits her, is no stranger to drama. A talented actress and a P.I., she’s chosen to pursue a career in Hollywood when she hears that her best friend’s husband is suddenly on his deathbed back home in Mississippi---and he's not the only one. The vicious illness begins with burning fevers and delirium, quickly plunging its victims into a coma. The Centers for Disease Control is on the scene, but they can’t find a cure for it or the boll weevils that are decimating Sunflower County’s cotton crop. With patients in quarantine and the whole town in crisis, Sarah drops everything to stop the outbreak and save the only place she’s ever been able to call home.
From feuding scientists to ailing locals, there is no shortage of bad blood coursing through the little town of Zinnia, Mississippi, as Carolyn Haines’s often steamy and always charming series turns equally intense in Greedy Bones.

About the Author:
Hollywood actress Sarah Booth Delaney returns to her Southern hometown to perform some serious sleuthing in this often hilarious, occasionally steamy, and always charming novel from Carolyn Haines.
Sarah is no stranger to drama. So when this talented actress and a P.I. hears that her best friend's husband is suddenly on his deathbed back home, she snaps into "action!" and gets right on the case...
"The cast is in fine form...One of the more entertaining episodes in the series."
--Booklist
Turns out others in Zinnia, Mississippi, have fallen prey to the illness as well. The folks from the Centers for Disease Control are on the scene, but they can't find a cure for it...or for the boll weevils that are decimating Sunflower County's cotton crop. With patients in quarantine and the whole town in crisis, Sarah will go out on a limb to stop the outbreak--and try to save the only place she's been proud enough to call home.
"Captivating--readers will enjoy Greedy Bones from cranium to phalanges."--Don Noble, Alabama Public Radio
"Wonderfully wise...infused with Southern charm."--Publishers Weekly
