When amateur sleuth and dreamwalker Baxley Powell is called in on a stabbing case, she arrives in time to hear the dying man whisper, "Bubba done it."
Four men named Bubba in Sinclair County, Ga., have close ties to the victim, including her goofball brother-in-law, Bubba Powell.
She dreamwalks for answers, but the dead guy can't talk to her. Baxley sleuths among the living. The suspects include a down-on-his-luck fisherman, a crackhead evangelist, a politically-connected investor, and her brother-in-law, the former sweetheart of the new widow.
The more Baxley digs, the more the Bubbas start to unravel. Worse, her brother-in-law's definitely more than friendly with the new widow.
Between petsitting, landscaping, and dreamwalking, Baxley's got her hands full solving this case.
