Summary

From NY Times and USA Today best-selling author Jana DeLeon, the second book in the Miss Fortune mystery series.

No one in Sinful liked Pansy Arceneaux, but who hated her enough to kill her?

When aspiring actress Pansy Arceneaux returns to Sinful, Louisiana, to head up the beauty pageant portion of the Summer Festival, CIA assassin Fortune Redding knows she's in for trouble. Her undercover identity as a former beauty queen makes Fortune the perfect choice to chair the event with Pansy, but Pansy's abrasive personality makes it impossible to get through a single rehearsal without a fight. When Pansy turns up dead, Fortune is the prime suspect.

Armed with only her wits and two conniving seniors referred to locally as The Geritol Mafia, Fortune launches an investigation to find the real killer before her cover is blown.

Great Fun

I like this book even better than the first one, it is funny and the characters are beginning to develop into an interesting set. It is really well narrated.

Gertie!

I’m re-reading this series, just for the sheer pleasure of it all! However, if you are in need of something lighthearted to lift your spirits, but still want an interesting intriguing sometimes), Murder/mystery, then start this series.

Fortune Redding may be the titular main character, but Gertie is the star! You’ll have to read it to find out why.
Cassandra Campbell has voiced these characters Perfectly! This tale is a pure pleasure, from start to finish.

I love the Miss Fortune mysteries, the only problem is people think I am nuts. I listen while I am out and they make me laugh out loud. Well never mind, they are worth it.

Another Laugh-out-loud story!

This author is fast becoming a favourite! I love the slow crawl of interest between Fortune and the Deputy but even more than that I love Gerdie and Ida Belle. They are amazing! On to the next adventure!
