Product Description At the Kountry Kitchen, Wanda Nell gets a surprising customer-her brother Rusty, who she hasn't set eyes on since their mama died. Wanda Nell wants to heal the rift between them, but Rusty has other scores to settle in town. Then a man is murdered, and Rusty-who had a knock-down drag-out with him just hours earlier-disappears. Wanda Nell knows her baby brother isn't a killer, and she's got to find both him and the real murderer before the whole thing starts to stink like yesterday's leftovers.

Racial issues April 24, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The life of Wanda Nell Culpepper takes on another complication when her brother Rusty shows up in town. He is a wannabe songwriter who has been living in Nashville, and he has been out of touch for years. He is back in town in Tullahoma, Mississippi, stirring up trouble. He has had confrontations with several local men that he knew when they were in high school. He is obviously dredging up something from the past, but he refuses to give any information to Wanda Nell.
Now one of the other men has been beaten to death, and a second man shows up dead. Rusty disappears, and Wanda Nell has been threatened and told to keep her nose out of things. Wanda Nell cannot be intimidated, particularly when her brother is missing.
There are the usual side issues with family. Miz Culpepper's cousin Belle shows up in town (a woman who can speak her mind without saying much). Some characters continue is the series, including Wanda Nell's neighbor Mayrene (with her shotgun), and some new characters are introduced. Wanda Nell is still working two jobs.
Keeps Getting Better July 25, 2007 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
I love this series. The writing is good and the characters are well-formed and interesting. This story was very mature and well crafted. A very sophisticated cozy. Only the cover gives it the cozy feel. More, More, More.

Just like a slice of America Pie. I think this book represents most of America in a rural setting. Love it really.
