Susan Kiernan-Lewis

Still struggling to adapt to life a hundred years in the past, newlywed Georgia O'Connell is shockingly confronted with the murder of a famous female investigative reporter in Savannah that she is honor-bound to solve. Ex-fiancé and current Chief of the Savannah Police Sam Bohannon stands firmly in her way to achieving those ends. Georgia must battle her own ill-advised determination to punish Sam for his many crimes while not letting that vendetta interfere with her new marriage-or her ability to find justice for the murdered woman."Dying in High Cotton" blends the rich historical detail of the Roaring Twenties in the hauntingly beautiful setting of Savannah, Georgia-with a gripping mystery peppered with the modern romantic sensibilities that make sense to no one in 1925 except for Georgia herself.
This book is a clean read featuring an adorable scruffy dog.
