My name is Dovey Coe and I reckon it don t matter if you like me or not I m here to lay the record straight to let you know them folks saying I done a terrible thing are liars I aim to prove it too I hated Parnell Caraway as much as the next person but I didn t kill him Dovey Coe says what s on her mind so it s no secret that she can t stand Parnell Caraway Parnell may be the son of the richest man in town but he s mean and snobby and Dovey can t stand the fact that he s courting her sister Caroline or the way he treats her brother Amos as if he were stupid just because he can t hear So when Parnell turns up dead and Dovey s in the room where his body is discovered she soon finds herself on trial for murder Can the outspoken Dovey sit still and trust a city slicker lawyer who s still wet behind the ears to get her out of the biggest mess of her life Ean: 9780689846670
