Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Murder Boogies with Elvis
Anne George · 2009
78/100
👍 Worth It
Anne George closes out the Southern Sisters with exactly the breezy, warm, bickering-sisters energy that built the series its following — thirty sequined Elvis impersonators and a Russian emigre victim is as charming a setup as the cozy genre gets. The mystery itself is lighter than a puzzle-lover might want, but the humor and heart are the real product here. A lovely goodbye to Mouse and Sister for anyone who has enjoyed the ride.
