Aggie Sloan-Wilcox isn't like other minister's wives you might know. Raised by her free-spirited mother, Junie, it's logical that some of her unconventional ways have rubbed off on Aggie. Sometimes that's not a good thing when your husband is the pastor of the local Unitarian church.
But then, finding the naked body of a woman on her front porch isn't the way to win friends and supporters in the congregation. As the body count begins to rise in Emerald Springs, Ohio, Aggie must find the murderer, or her husband, Ed might take the fall. What could be worse than that? Well, Aggie could become the murderer's next victim.
Emilie Richards, first in the new Aggie Sloan-Wilcox series, is a fast-paced and fun romp with dead bodies littering the parish landscape in Emerald Springs. Aggie is smart, quirky, fearless and 'nice' even when others' behavior is nasty.
Armchair Interviews says: Richard's cozy amateur sleuth series is one you'll want to start from the beginning.
