Description
In southern Ohio, in the heart of the Appalachians, folks don't like to talk about themselves much. So when a murder makes the morning news, it comes right behind a report on the school bus and the latest on Slim Coolis' Nubian goats. List-maker par excellence Molly West is listening attentively and wants to know what's up, especially once she learns that the murder involves an acquaintance. But prying information out of her neighbor Sheriff Matins is about as easy as cracking acorns with show more her teeth, and after fifteen years of residence, Molly is still an outsider to most of the locals. Yet Cathy Breyers' murder may just give Molly a chance to get inside their heads. As a director of a county meal-delivery program (and with a little help from her sociologist husband, Ken), she's beginning to understand the roundabout ways in which the locals communicate with one another. Even Louella Chalmers Benton, the county's crabbiest resident - who knows everybody's business and a thing or two about cockfighting - seems to be letting Molly into the clan. And Sheriff Matins, despite his taciturn ways, grumblingly admits that Molly has become an asset and a pretty good detective. show lessTags
