Farewell Blues by Maggie Robinson: Series: Lady Adelaide Mysteries


Addie's mother is accused of murder.  She found her friend dead on the floor and picked up the gun.  The cops found there and are sure she's the killer.  Addie knows she's not.  Now how to prove it.

Poisoned Pen Press and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published September 14th.

The crowd that Addie runs with is all high toned elite.  When one of them wishes to marry a black person it becomes a point of contention.  This has nothing to do with the murder but it adds to the drama.

Addie's mom hires a cop to prove her innocence.  He's attracted to Addie and she is attracted to him.  If they are going to find the killer, they have to set that aside.

They know it has to be a member of the family or a servant because no one else was around.  But which one?

Addie asks questions as well as her cop friend.  Then something happens which breaks the case open.  If they can just stay alive long enough to take the killer down...
