“Patricia Sprinkle is a modern master of the classic cozy mystery.” --Nancy Pickard
State bridge champ, Edie Whelan, may win card games, but the hand that life deals her isn’t quiet as rosy. But she has her job at the library and her beautiful thousand-acre pecan grove—a stressful life, but an acceptable one. But then the pecan grove’s foreman suddenly dies...and then Edie goes too—and not from natural causes.
Now, county magistrate Mac Yarbrough is on the case to prove the foreman's son innocent of murder, and figure out who's got a card up their sleeve...

作者简介
Patricia Sprinkle decided in ninth grade to become a writer, a goal that remained with her as she went on to study creative writing at Vassar College. After a life-changing, deadline-free stint living in the Scottish Highlands, Sprinkle returned to the United States to settle down with her husband and kids in Atlanta, Georgia, whereupon she found her calling in the genre of mystery. Since 1988, Sprinkle has written twenty mysteries, four novels, and five non-fiction books. She later returned to the world of academia and attended Florida International University for a Masters of Arts in Religious Studies with a focus on religion and literature. She currently lives in Mableton, Georgia. When not writing, Sprinkle likes to read, snorkel, and work with growing plants and growing children.
