From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jana DeLeon, the third book in the Miss Fortune Mystery series. When only a crack shot will do… In the two weeks CIA assassin Fortune Redding has been hiding in Sinful, Louisiana, she's been harassed, poisoned, and shot at…and that was the easy part. But now, she's about to face her biggest challenge since setting foot in the tiny bayou town. When mayoral candidate Ted Williams is murdered, everyone is surprised. Ted was a blowhole and a Yankee, but those usually weren't good reasons to kill someone. When Sinful Ladies Society leader Ida Belle becomes the lead suspect in the crime, Fortune knows she's got to solve a murder and save one of the only friends she's ever had. But as the investigation begins, more and more secrets surface, and Fortune realizes that sometimes nothing is as it seems.

You will enjoy this book more if you read Vol 1 and 2 first. All three books are laugh out loud funny. I love the main character, Fortune. She is a CIA ***assin in hiding and is anything but helpless but she gets herself into some sticky situations, with the help of her two elderly friends. There are a handful of characters that develop along with Fortune. The mystery in all three books had me guessing up till the end. There is also Fortunes budding relationship with the sheriff that definitely adds another level of interest to the story. I cant wait to read the next volume.
