Heard It Through the Grapevine
Descripción editorial
Savannah talk show host Lainey Garcia is back in Vineyard, Texas, after the suspicious death of her estranged sister, Tessa. Standing at the casket of her dead sister, trying to find it in her heart to forgive her for stealing the only man she's ever loved, Lainey's greeted by Tessa's ghost, who has a story she's dying to tell. Seems Tessa was murdered, and she wants Lainey and her other siblings to find her killer. But it doesn't take the Garcia girls long to discover that the list of suspects who wanted the smart-mouthed Tessa dead is a mile long, and when the sisters, along with help from the "other world," get too close, Lainey finds herself in a fight for her life.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Lipperman (Liver Let Die and two other Clueless Cook mysteries) introduces Lainey Garcia, a TV talk show hostess in Savannah, Ga., in the promising first of her Dead Sister Talking series. Lainey is contemplating an offer to fill an anchor slot with a network affiliate in Tampa, Fla., when she receives word that her estranged sister, Tessa, has died in an explosion, possibly caused by a gas leak in Tessa's house. Back home in Vineyard, Tex., Lainey reunites with her three surviving sisters and learns that Tessa was murdered. At the funeral home, while Lainey is trying to hide her conflicted feelings about her deceased sister, Tessa's ghost appears to her but not to the other sisters. Soon, Lainey and Tessa's shade set out to identify the killer and stop him before he can strike again. Conflict between Lainey's current beau, who visits from Savannah, and an old boyfriend add romantic tension.
