"Frankly My Dear, I'm Dead" is Livia J. Washburn's first mystery in her new Literary Tour mystery series. Newly divorced red-headed and hot-tempered Delilah Dickenson is opening her own literary travel agency in Atlanta but her first group tour runs into a little difficulty -- namely murder! The "Gone With The Wind" tour started in Atlanta then moved to a plantation modeled after Tara (from "Gone With the Wind") where they are staying overnight and attending a ball. However, the overnight stay is prolonged when the police arrive after the actor playing Rhett Butler is murdered. In the meantime, some of the guests are complaining of thefts of personal items and Delilah begins to see her new business venture not going so well. As if that weren't enough, she's also responsible for chaperoning her twin teenage nieces - a full-time occupation at times by itself!
When Delilah becomes concerned that the police are pointed in the wrong direction, she decides it's time to do a little sleuthing herself and finds herself assisted by Dr.Will Burke, a local college professor who specializes in history and literature. Although Delilah is not interested in a romantic entanglement so soon after her divorce, she does find herself attracted to the handsome Dr. Burke and he proves to be an extremely valuable sleuthing partner.
Will Delilah be able to successfully solve the petty thefts as well as the murder and save her new livelihood? pazt
