Shorty BonesShorty Bones by Carolyn Haines is the first short store in the “Sarah Booth Delaney” series. Publisher: Minotaur, April 2014

From award-winning author Carolyn Haines comes a charming story starring feisty Southern belle and private investigator Sarah Booth Delaney.

Sarah Booth just wants to help her fiancĂ© recover from a leg wound in peace…Until, that is, an ex-porn star declares that she’s being stalked, and Sarah Booth suddenly finds herself in the midst of a wild case with no idea what to believe or whom to trust.

Sarah Booth and Tinkie take on a small case that ends with unexpected results. This delightfully entertaining and very enjoyable short story was a nice interlude to the next full-length Sarah Booth Delaney novel.
