A Regrettable Reunion Mabry Hall

Antique jewelry dealer Annalee Wyatt has settled into life on recently-inherited Goat Hill Farm, and gamely agrees to accompany her new boyfriend to his class reunion. Former football star Ryan Dawson shows up with his adoring wife and slides right back into his role as big man on campus. By evening's end, he's bragged to the guys, pawed the women, and generally convinced everyone he isn't the great guy they remember. No one is sorry to see him leave the party, but someone is angry enough to make sure he's gone for good. Though short on detective skills, Annalee's jewelry expertise pulls her into his murder investigation when an unusual brooch is found in the possession of the accused killer. Doubtful someone would commit murder for the small, salamander-shaped pin, she's convinced there's more to the story and can't resist poking her nose into small-town secrets. Join Annalee and her cohorts as they traipse through northern Louisiana and east Texas in avid pursuit of another 18 Karat Cold criminal.
