The private eyes at Price Investigations in Natchez, Mississippi are on the road again with their latest case. Michael Preston and Beth Kirby are being sent to Savannah to investigate a case of a cheating husband. It is a quite enticing deal. Their expenses are being paid for two weeks, plus a nice fee for the company's investigation. They've even been told to spend some time enjoying the city.

They arrive on Tybee Island at the home of Evelyn Doyle. Evelyn believes her husband of forty years, Lamar, is seeing someone else. She wants to know if this person is someone she should really be worried about, or if it is just a passing fling. Michael and Beth make quick work of finding out that Lamar is seeing a twenty-something young lady who works at a coffee shop. Lamar has Bonnie Mulroney all set up in an expensive apartment in the historic district of Savannah. They report back to Evelyn and their work is complete, until Lamar turns up dead on the verandah of their home a couple days later.

Though the Tybee Island police are handling the case, Beth just can't keep her nose out of it. When the police begin to look at Evelyn as their chief suspect, Beth goes into action to try to clear her of any wrong doing.

SUNSET IN OLD SAVANNAH is the fourth book in Mary Ellis's Secrets of the South series. It is an inspirational romantic suspense story that you will find hard to put down. The action is nonstop, with the characters making many trips from Savannah to Tybee Island and back. We're given a wonderful tour of this beautiful old city as the characters spend their time both sight-seeing and investigating. Who says you can't mix business and pleasure? I just love the playful banter between Michael and Beth in their dialogue. But is this playful banter turning into something else?

SUNSET IN OLD SAVANNAH is a delightful story about forgiveness, putting your faith into action and weathering the storms of life. Ms. Ellis's series is a continuation of previous stories, but you'll have no trouble following the storyline and the characters' development. Don't miss any of this series!
