Description

Three sisters couldn't be more different, but they share one thing in common — a taste for solving crimes!

It's 1921, and Americans are still reeling in the aftermath of World War I. In a small town on the California/Nevada border, the Grave sisters run a funeral home. The eldest, Eve, takes care of the administration and accounting. Middle sister Helena uses her scientific and medical knowledge for the more hands-on side of the business. Eighteen-year-old Violet, the youngest, skirts the edge of a flapper lifestyle, preferring parties and jazz to funeral services and burials.

Then, Gyver County's newly appointed district attorney asks for the sisters' assistance in identifying the body of a young woman found along a remote part of the river. At first, the police think it's suicide. Only it isn't — it's murder!

As far as the sisters are concerned, murder is police business. Their business is to see the dead are laid to rest. But District Attorney Oliver Clarke needs their help, and they can't say no.

What follows is a twisted tale with only a few clues to help untangle it: a missing engagement ring, a piece of rope, and a torn lapel.

Will Eve and her sisters succeed in bringing justice to a dead, innocent young woman?

From the author of the Adele Gossling Mysteries comes a new series set in the tumultuous early years of the Jazz Age. Follow the adventures of three sisters who battle life and death in a nation moving into the modern age faster than it can handle.
