Still struggling to adapt to life a hundred years in the past, newlywed Georgia O'Connell is shockingly confronted with the death of a famous socialite from Savannah's elite that she believes she is honor-bound to solve. Ex-fiancé and current Chief of the Savannah Police Sam Bohannon stands firmly in her way to achieving those ends. Georgia must battle her own ill-advised determination to punish Sam for his many crimes while not letting that vendetta interfere with her new marriage—or her ability to find justice for the murdered woman who had grown to mean so much to Georgia.

"Dying in High Cotton" blends the rich historical detail of the Roaring Twenties in the hauntingly beautiful setting of Savannah, Georgia—with a gripping mystery peppered with the modern romantic sensibilities that make sense to no one in 1925 except for Georgia herself. This book is a clean read featuring an adorable scruffy dog.
