Kurzbeschreibung
The final hilariously funny Southern Sisters mystery has the sisters on the case of a murder when an Elvis impersonator makes a permanent exit. This is a fittina end and tribute to a remarkable mystery series.Beschreibung
Mary Alice and Patricia Anne are happy being grandmothers, enjoying their sixties and - oh, yes - planning Mary Alices 4th wedding. When a benefit for restoring Birminghams famous Vulcan statue, the sisters think they are in for a lively - if slightly tacky - evening. But then during the grand finale - a chorus of high kicking Elvis impersonators - one Elvis does a swan dive into the band. A new case of murder for the sisters to solve.Klappentext
Oversized, outrageous Mary Alice and her prim sister Patricia Anne have been looking forward to the gala benefit being staged to raise money for the restoration of Vulcan, Birmingham's ever-tarnishing unnatural wonder. And what a show it is, with a grand finale that has thirty sequined Elvis impersonators high-kicking in unison! From the front row, "Mouse" and "Sister" have a perfect view of the action when one of the dancing Kings keels over dead into the bandstand. This Elvis clone has not only left the building ... he's left this life, courtesy of a switchblade knife in the back. And when the murder weapon turns up in Patricia Anne's very sensible purse, the perennially law-abiding "Mouse" is understandably all shook up. Suspicious minds have her pegged as the prime suspect in this bizarre case of Elvis elimination. And if she doesn't do some serious sleuthing, she could end up doing the Jailhouse Rock!
