About this product

Product Information

Though unalike as snowflakes, sisters Patricia Anne and Mary Alice share a sympathetic heart for their distraught cousin Luke -- known affectionately in his boyhood as "Pukey Lukey," because of his penchant for getting sick in moving vehicles. Luke is desperate to hunt down Virginia, his wife of forty years, who has run off with a housepainter/snake-handling preacher named "Monk." And the sisters have graciously agreed to accompany their stricken kinsman on his search...in Luke's car, of course. But, while practical "Mouse" and flamboyant "Sister" are unable to find their runaway cousin-in-law among the asp-loving faithful on Chandler Mountain, they do manage to stumble upon the corpse of a pretty young redhead who was prematurely sent to her eternal reward. And before you can say "anaconda," they are hot on the serpentine trail of a killer who'd like nothing better than to sink a pair of poisonous fangs into two meddling Southern sisters!

Absolutely Wonderful!
Anne George created the Southern Sisters Mysteries and did such an outstanding job that her passing made us morn for one of the best writers who ever put two Southern sisters, of middle age, into stories of wit and humor and memorable character. Patricia Anne is the complete opposite of her sister Mary Alice. Where Patricia is petite and of a conservative, witty nature and still married to the same man all these years, her sister Mary Alice is full-figured, tall,and flashy and has several marriages behind her, but that does not deter her from looking for her next husband! Just back from vacation where she and Mary Alice spent time with Patricia's married daughter Haley, they are both greeted by their cousin Pukey Lukey who's in a terrible state! Pukey got his nickname from being car sick all the time as a child but now he is heart sick. His wife, Virginia, of 40 years, has run off with a housepainter/preacher. Luke talks the sisters into driving with him to the top of Chandler Mountain to search for Virginia. Once they get to the top, Luke goes into a deserted, rundown church and doesn't come out. The sisters go inside and find that he has been hit on the head and is out cold. Next to him is a pretty redhead who is dead! After Sheriff Stuckey is called and Luke is taken to a hospital the sisters find out that the church belongs to the faithful that are into snake-handling. All is not well with the church who is looking for a successor to the head holy man who they believed was killed by the legendary Chandler Mountain Booger...."Bigfoot!" Patricia and Mary Alice don't believe this for a second and start asking a lot of questions. Luke's wife is still missing so how does she fit into the picture? And who threw a live rattlesnake into their car?Read full review

These Southern Sisters Bring a Smile to My Face
I'm not a Southern born women like the sisters in the Southern Sisters books but I am close to their age. They have a way about them that just reminds me of my in-laws here in NC. A mix of pure southern charm and silliness that just makes me laugh out loud while I'm reading these books.
