What is Splintered Bones about?
She may be a born-and-bred Mississippi belle, but it's been a long time since Sarah Booth Delaney was a pampered daddy's girl. Unwed and over thirty, Sarah has more important things on her mind - like trying to hang on to her family's plantation ... and coping with regular hauntings by her great-great-grandmother's nanny, a bossy busybody of a ghost who is set on marrying her off to the first eligible suitor who comes calling. But when a friend is in trouble, Sarah doesn't hesitate to get involved. Eulalee McBride has confessed to killing her husband, Kemper, a gambling scalawag with a violent streak a mile wide. She wants Sarah to dig up the dirt on her dead spouse to prove he was a mean old bastard ... and that's why she bludgeoned him to death right before he was trampled by a 1,400-pound horse. But Sarah Booth knows her old friend is lying through her pearly whites - probably to protect her teenage daughter Kip, an angry kid who may have had her own reasons for wanting Kemper dead. There's certainly no lack of suspects - or studs - in Zinnia, Mississippi, including Bud Lynch, a trainer with a nasty secret, who arouses killer lust in the town's women - all married and all ready
