REVIEW
Mourning Crisis is a humorous southern mystery from Carolyn Ridder Aspenson. Out of work actress, Mayme, has her work cut out for her as she plays funeral faker Ivy Sawyer whose fiance has died suddenly. Turn on the red neck southern charm!
This fast paced mystery left me laughing and blessing everyone's heart. I love the down home humor.
