Literary Tour mysteries

I discovered Livia J Washburn first through her Fresh Baked mystery series, which I ate up and yummed over. But she also has another series which I decided to start. The first book 'Frankly My Dear, I'm Dead' is a riotious read about a new business venture called Literary Tours. The first tour idea stemmed around the bestselling book and movie, Gone With the Wind. The tour starts at the Margaret Mitchell house and Museum, moves onto a tea room and the next day goes to a remarkable facsimile of Tara, where there are role playing actors in the roles of the hit movie. While at the plantation, you are treated to a wonderful tour and ball and an overnight stay. What isn't counted on was the murder of the actor playing Rhett Butler and later of a pickpocket tourist. One member of the tour company thought that this premise was a great gimic stating 'Murder is interesting. If it wasn't, there wouldn't be so many books written about it'. This was a fun read and had me laughing in a few places, especially when Delilah admits she should play detective. After all,'...I was curious. Like I said, I guess I'm just a natural-born snoop. Maybe all mothers are, to a certain extent. When our kids reach a certain age, they make us work like detectives to find out what's going on in their lives and some of us never get out of the habit'. I got this book from an out of town library, so you will have to find your own. But you should read all of her books. Very good. http://www.liviawashburn.com/
