Glory Broussard is back in Arceneaux’s second Louisiana-set semi-cozy mystery (following Glory Be). Mardi Gras is near, and Glory has been tapped to organize this year’s gala festivities. When her ex-husband, Sterling, goes missing and Glory finds him dead, she reluctantly agrees to help her daughter Delphine and Sterling’s new wife, Valerie, solve his murder. They find conflicting information while investigating Sterling’s new job at the local casino and racetrack. Had he really changed his ways or was the troubled man still engaged in illegal activities? Glory balances her detective work, to solve Sterling’s murder, with her motherly prying into Delphine’s secrets. She remains determined to solve the case and make the Mardi Gras gala a success.
VERDICT In book two of this entertaining series, the characters continue to develop in realistic and meaningful ways, while aging, friendship, and familial expectations are explored. Recommended for readers who enjoyed The Townsend Family Recipe for Disaster by Shauna Robinson, It’s Elementary by Elise Bryant, or Murder Is a Piece of Cake by Valerie Burns.
