The Sea Islands along the Georgia coast serve as a winter playground for the likes of the Carnegies, Rockefellers, Vanderbilts, and Dicksons. Despite her Yankee pedigree, Eleanor is marrying a Southern gentleman, Teddy Bennett, and Prudence is thrilled to be the maid of honor. But days before the wedding, the bride is nowhere to be found. A frantic search of the island turns up her drowned corpse in an alligator-infested swamp. Prudence is devastated, but as they prepare the body for burial, she and Geoffrey discover evidence of bruising that indicates Eleanor was held under -- most dishonorably murdered. Determined to seek justice for her beloved friend, Prudence begins to investigate with Geoffrey's help and is quickly led into a morass of voodoo spells and dark deeds from the days of slavery. As Prudence and Geoffrey pursue a killer, they soon discover that Eleanor will not be the last to die on Bradford Island."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Georgia $x History $y 19th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Simpson, Rosemary, $d 1942- $t Gilded Age mystery. 941 $a 9 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909055026.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722062425.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20200609014244.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20200211014230.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20200208010437.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204095920.0 952 $l VBPC034 $d 20200120112044.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110082814.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20191204010240.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C3824546166311EA9B100A4E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
