Produktbeschreibung
Eve Appel Egret is adjusting to married life with Sammy and their three adopted sons in Sabal Bay, Florida. While still running her consignment stores, she is going pro with her sleuthing by becoming an apprentice to a private detective. Until her marriage, Eve's only "family" was her grandmother Grandy, who raised her after her parents died in a boating accident. Now, in addition to her husband and sons, she has a father-in-law who clearly dislikes her. Sammy's father, a full-blooded Miccosukee Indian long presumed dead, has emerged from the swamps where he's been living like a hermit, and he isn't happy about Eve's marriage to his half-Miccosukee, half-white son. As for Eve's family, are her parents really dead? A woman named Eleanor claims to be Eve's half-sister, born after her mother faked a boating accident to escape her abusive husband, Eve's father. Then Eleanor's father turns up dead in the swamps, stabbed by a Bowie knife belonging to Sammy's father, Lionel. Strange as Lionel Egret is, Eve knows he had no motive to kill this stranger. In order to clear him, Eve must investigate Eleanor's claims, and she might not like what digging around in her family's past uncovers. Book 6 in the Eve Appel Mystery series.
Autorenporträt
Lesley A. Diehl retired from her life as a professor of psychology and reclaimed her country roots by moving to a small cottage in the Butternut River Valley in upstate New York. In the winter she migrates to old Florida-cowboys, scrub palmetto, and open fields of grazing cattle-a place where spurs still jingle in the post office, and gators make golf a contact sport. Back north, the shy ghost inhabiting the cottage serves as her literary muse. When not writing, she gardens, cooks and renovates a 1874 cottage with the help of her husband, two cats and, of course, Fred the ghost, who gives artistic direction to their work. Lesley is the author of a number of mystery series and mysteries as well as short stories. Killer Tied follows the first five books in the Eve Appel mystery series, A Secondhand Murder, Dead in the Water, A Sporting Murder, Mud Bog Murder, and Old Bones Never Die.
