When PI Sarah Booth Delaney and her partner and best friend, Tinkie, accept Monica and Eleanor Levert as clients, they don't have much hope of solving the case. The wealthy heiresses of Briarcliff in Natchez, Mississippi, claim that a family necklace worth four million dollars has been stolen, and they think the insurance payout will be swifter with a reputable PI on the case. Sarah Booth has her doubts, and not just about the payout. There's evidence suggesting that fraud may be involved.

Just as Sarah and Tinkie start scratching the surface of the Levert family's sordid past and the blood money that all of their wealth was founded upon, Monica goes missing. The police suspect that the heiresses are playing more games -- and Eleanor is no help at all.

What no one knows is that Eleanor is the kidnappers' ace in the hole. If Eleanor says or does anything besides pass on the insurance money to the kidnappers, Monica will die.

From the Back Cover:

"Southern P.I. Sarah Booth Delaney tries to untangle the twisted schemes of twin sisters in the strangest case yet in Carolyn Haines's award-winning series."

A ruby necklace worth four million dollars appears to have been stolen, and its owners, Monica and Eleanor Levert twin heirs of a wealthy Natchez clan seem a bit too anxious to get their hands on the insurance money. It sounds a tad suspicious to Sarah Booth, who's been asked to file a report, but she can't be sure someone's committing fraud or any other crime, for that matter until one of the sisters is kidnapped

"A LESSON IN LYING, MISSISSIPPI STYLE with great dollops of charm." "Kirkus Reviews"

The police suspect the heiresses are playing some sort of game. But when Sarah Booth and her partner Tinkie begin to scratch the surface of the family's sordid past, they uncover more skeletons than any one closet can hold. Throw in a sneaky romantic gardener, a lurid tell-all biographer, and a body plunging off a plantation cliff, and the kidnapped twin plot thickens. But Sarah Booth really starts seeing double when Jitty the ghost shows up as a pair of sisters and two crimes become deadlier than one
