Southern cozy mystery wedding murder case.
Welcome back to Sugar Creek Gap, where front porch gossip travels faster than the mail truck and neighbors come together through good times, hard times—and the occasional murder.
Mail carrier Bernadette Butler is finally getting her happily-ever-after. Wedding bells are ringing all over town as she prepares to marry Mac Tabor, the man of her dreams.
But wedding week in Sugar Creek Gap takes a deadly turn when a local radio DJ with a reputation for stirring up trouble is found stabbed to death with a letter opener just days before the ceremony.
And the prime suspect?
The very DJ Bernadette hired to play at her wedding.
Now Bernadette’s dream wedding is suddenly tangled in a murder investigation. Determined to save her big day—and clear the name of someone she believes may be innocent—Bernadette starts digging for answers with the help of her friends and neighbors.
As secrets surface and motives pile up, Bernadette discovers that in a town as close-knit as Sugar Creek Gap, even the sweetest celebrations can hide dangerous grudges.
With the clock ticking toward her wedding day, Bernadette must uncover the truth before the killer strikes again—and before her walk down the aisle turns into a walk into trouble.
Red Letter Slay is a full-length Southern cozy mystery and Book #8 in the Mail Carrier Cozy Mystery Series, but it can be enjoyed as a standalone.
