Goodreads synopsis:

Where is Kent Heyward? The twenty-three-year-old heiress from one of Charleston’s oldest families vanished a month ago. When her father hires private investigator Liz Talbot, Liz suspects the most difficult part of her job will be convincing the patriarch his daughter tired of his overbearing nature and left town. That’s what the Charleston Police Department believes. 

   But behind the garden walls South of Broad, family secrets pop up like weeds in the azaleas. The neighbors recollect violent arguments between Kent and her parents. Eccentric twin uncles and a gaggle of cousins covet the family fortune. And the lingering spirit of a Civil-War-era debutante may know something if Colleen, Liz’s dead best friend, can get her to talk.

   Liz juggles her case, the partner she’s in love with, and the family she adores. But the closer she gets to what has become of Kent, the closer Liz dances to her own grave.

This is the third book in the Liz Talbot Mysteries series.

You definitely get sucked into these mysteries once you start reading them. Susan is a great author that I appreciate more and more with every book. I tend to cross-stitch while listening to my kindle read to me text-to-speech.

This author writes through Henery Press and I have discovered so many great authors through this publishing company. If you love this type of book (cozy mystery) check out any book in the Henery Press line up. You won’t be disappointed.

When an heiress goes missing, the woman’s father hires Liz and her company to investigate. But all is not well in the Heyward household. Violent outbursts and such heard by neighbors give Liz pause and make her wonder if the gal just decided to part ways with her parents in the easiest way possible.

The closer Liz gets to the truth, the more danger she finds herself in. 

This is great stuff. Don’t miss it. Check it out today!

I bought this book with my own money.
