scriberscouse recommends Splintered Bones by Carolyn Haines, "Although there are no paranormal elements to the Blackbird Sister novels they have such a pleasantly similar feel to the Bones/Mississippi Delta novels (see more) I'm sure fans will love both."

I thought this was a much better read than the first book in this series, How to Murder a Millionaire. Those sisters are a hoot! Nora solves the murder of a high society jewel thief. (

Impoverished Philadelphia heiress Nora Blackbird has agreed to wed Mick Abruzzo, son of New Jersey's most notorious mobster, leaving the city's bluebloods in shock. Then Nora and her sisters get some ominous news-Sweet Penny Devine, ex-Hollywood starlet and daughter of the Philadelphia Devines, has mysteriously disappeared. Even stranger, her family wants her declared dead pronto. Could someone have plotted her final act? Now it's up to the Blackbird sisters to snoop among the snooty-until they uncover the truth.
