While mysteries are not my usual choice of reading, occasionally a book comes along that catches my attention. WHEN THE LAST MAGNOLIA WEEPS is just such a book.

Willi Taft, a former Nashville session singer, is now a private investigator.  While attending a Celtic concert, a priest is murdered, and Willi becomes involved in the case when one of her musician friends becomes a suspect.  When she comes closer to discovering the identity of the
murderer, Willi is badly shaken by the deceptions and treachery she is uncovering.

The characters are very lifelike and I found myself almost living the scenes from WHEN THE LAST MAGNOLIA WEEPS.  Needless to say, I did not guess the identity of the killer until it was revealed in the story.  Mystery fans, young and old, will enjoy this book.
