Publisher's summary

Nothing says Welcome Home like a murder.

It’s official. Fortune Redding is out of the CIA and a newly minted resident of Sinful, Louisiana. She never expected her homecoming to be all apple pie and hugs, but a murder wasn’t on her list of things to deal with before she’d even gotten her name stenciled on her mailbox.

Boone Carre-Hooch, to the locals - was a drunk and a louse and had shafted pretty much everyone he’d ever done business with. So when someone kills him, there is no shortage of suspects. Unfortunately, Ally is at the top of the list.

Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie know that Ally isn’t capable of murdering anyone, but with an ambitious ADA looking to make a name for himself, and the local gossip train intent on finding someone to blame, they know they have to find the killer and clear Ally’s name.

A “reel” good listen!

I was really hoping that the Miss Fortune series wouldn’t change a lot after Fortune retired from the CIA & thankfully it hasn’t. Looks like I’m going to be enjoying Ms. DeLeon’s humor & intrigue with Fortune & crew for @ least a while longer. LOVE IT, LOVE IT & keep it coming!!!

Love but...

I love this series but the narrator will mix up the name of the character she is supposed to be portraying from time to time. She will either say the wrong na name or use the wrong voice which can be annoying & confusing.

Awesome! Must Listen To

This book was thoroughly enjoyable from intrigue, suspense to quirky characters. Audio was extremely well done. The only thing I didn't care for was continual "he said," "she said" dialogue tags. Accents were distinct and perfect for the characters and the done so it was easy to listen to. I hated to step away from the computer.

Fishing Rodeo

It’s official. Fortune Redding is retired from the CIA and Sinful’s newest resident. She bought Marge’s house and contents and is back in time for the fishing contest. Then there’s a murder and Ally is a suspect so it their first official case. Great laughs and narration.

Great series!

I have plowed through this series this Christmas. Just what I needed. Many laughs and heart. I love the ladies, though I suspect I would be the Gertie of the bunch. Lol.

Reel of Fortune

Another funny story of the adventures of Fortune and her friends. Of course there is always is a little bit of tension between Carter and Fortune. Love these books.
