St. Martin's Minotaur, 2006

If you read only one book a year, this should be it!
As someone who reads more books in one month than most people read in one year, I can attest that this one stands out from the crowd. Haines, who has entertained me well with her series of "Bones" books, made me sit up and take notice of just how good a writer she is with this book. I could barely put it down, finishing it in two days. Fiction set in timeframes other than the present rarely ...

A death in Zinnia, Mississippi
The story is set in Zinnia, Mississippi - in the Delta about two hours south of Memphis. Sarah Booth Delaney has been working for the past year as a PI in partnership with her longtime friend Tinkie, after returning from an unsuccessful try at acting in New York City. Her past catches up with her. Hurricane Katrina destroyed a planned venue for a play that is on tour around the country. As a ...

crossed bones
"Crossed Bones" is my favorite entry into the Mississippi Delta mysteries. At first, the plot seemed to be very typical-- a white man murders a black man-- but there is much more to this mystery than meets the eye. The pace is fast, & we also get to see Sarah Booth grow along the way. She still hasn't found the perfect man, but I have a feeling that she will in time. As always, Jitty offers the ...

A must read
If you like mysteries, then this book is for you. Carolyn Haines writes wonderful books with wonderful characters. I always think I have the murderer figured out until the twist at the end. Ms.Haines style of writing makes you feel like you are there with Sarah Booth helping her solving the mystery. If you like this book then you need to read all of her series.

Them Bones: A Mystery from the Mississippi Delta

This would be a terrific book even without the mystery!
The book has so much literary merit, that it could be placed among the novels. However, the excellent mystery plot also wins it a place among the mysteries. Haines creates characters who are memorable and vivid and places them in the Mississippi Delta town of Zinnia (I'm kind of reminded of the movie "In the Heat of the Night"). Sarah Booth is living in the ancestral home -- she is an orphan ...

St. Martin's Minotaur, 2007

Straight into the Bayou
Carolyn Haines has done it again. With her prose that flows as smoothly as the dark waters of the swamps of Louisiana, she plunges the reader into this land of superstition, spirits and mystery. Haines has always been a story teller of the first degree, but she gets better and better. Don't be misled. This is not one of Haines' golden happy girl tales (see the Delta Mystery Series) though they ...

Carolyn Haines is a treasure!
This is one of the finest books I've ever read! In Summer of the Redeemers, Carolyn Haines has created a book rich in place, atmosphere, characters, detail, and heart. I believe it ranks right up with To Kill a Mockingbird in significance. It's a book of many layers. Her characters are so real and resonate with life. It is a coming of age story as well as a murder mystery, but there are ...

Three Courageous Women
By the time I read the last pages of Carolyn Haines' latest book, MY MOTHER'S WITNESS: THE PEGGY MORGAN STORY, I was standing. Right there in my office, behind my desk, I gave a one-woman standing ovation for Carolyn Haines, for Peggy Morgan, for Inez Albritton, for truth, for justice, for hope. The book brought me to my feet spontaneously, as awe and respect for a home run always do. The drama ...

It will keep you up all night!
Once again Carolyn Haines has written about her native Mississippi and the people who live in that beautiful and mystical state. Things happen and lives are changed in Jexville, far from the "maddening crowd" of Atlanta traffic and Memphis' Beale Street. The nearby river looks quiet and peaceful, but there are dark and angry currents and ghastly events take place. Two teen age girls disappear, a ...

I Was There
Carolyn Haines' descriptions are so vivid and powerful that I felt I was walking on the road or actually sitting in the room with her characters. There were times the hairs on my arms just stood up or my heart was breaking with them. If Carolyn Haines was attempting to reveal the narrow mindness of people in small towns of the South, my opinion is She Nailed It. If she was trying to awaken ...

Well Worth Reading!
I had read some of Mr. Walter's whimsical poetry some years back, but until I discovered this collection, I never knew just how talented and versatile the man truly was! This was an incredible collection of essays, stories, and everyday remembrances written by an amazingly talented and diverse group of writers such as Pat Conroy, Charles McNair, and British author Virginia Adair. I thoroughly ...
