Publisher's summary

One of America's most beloved mystery writers, Carolyn G. Hart, the Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity Award-winning author, returns to her original mystery series featuring Annie Darling, owner of the Death on Demand Bookstore, and her husband, Max, with Mint Julep Murder.

Normally, Annie Laurence Darling would be eagerly awaiting her trip to Head Island, where this year's Dixie Book Festival is being held. But this year Annie has agreed to be the author liaison to five authors honored with the much-coveted Dixie Book Festival Medallions, and she fears she is going to have her hands full juggling murderous egos. What Annie doesn't count on is the untimely death of ambitious Mint Julep Press publisher Kenneth Hazlitt.

Hazlitt arrives at the Festival peddling a proposal for Song of the South, a trashy roman à clef that details the indiscretions of some famous Southern authors at a writers' conference - writers who more than resemble the Dixie Festival Medallion winners. When Hazlitt drops dead after drinking a hit of bourbon from his private stock, the evidence points to Annie - the fatal glass is imprinted with her fingerprints. As more and more evidence points her way, Annie and Max must act fast to catch a wily killer...before the police throw the book at Annie!

Too Over the Top

Ms Darling needs to calm herself. She reacts to everything like a 13 year old drama queen. This one was hard to finish.

To close to the Christie Caper story

Only difference between this book and the Christie Caper was Blue Benedict was in charge, accept, she was not in charge. Characters were different although It's a bit old bringing Emma Clyde in as a suspect with he exact same motive as three other times. she was also a suspect in Christie Caper and It was far better handled their.
