NOT A CHANCE IN HELEN: A RIVER ROAD MYSTERY

Book ID/图书代码: 06830014B76226

English Summary/英文概要: In the third River Road Mystery from USA Today bestselling author Susan McBride, Helen Evans knows her friend is not guilty of murder … she just has to prove it!

When 80-year-old Eleanora Duncan is found dead on her kitchen floor, Sheriff Frank Biddle suspects it isn’t from natural causes. Eleanora wasn’t exactly your average senior citizen. She was a widow worth millions, although all her money couldn’t buy her happiness—not after losing both her husband and son.

Eleanora’s bitterness alienated those around her, but did that bitterness make her the victim of foul play? Soon Jean Duncan, Eleanora’s daughter-in-law, becomes the prime suspect. But the sheriff gets more than he bargained for when Helen Evans comes to the aid of her friend.

Helen knows that Jean didn’t murder Eleanora, despite the very bad blood between them. So she uses every means at her disposal in order to clear Jean’s name and track down Eleanora’s killer.
