Meet Weezie (aka Eloise) Foley, a feisty antiques "picker," banished by her spiteful ex-husband from the house she herself restored in Savannah's historic district, who must come to terms with a life that has suddenly changed...and not, it, seems for the better. In Mary Kay Andrews's delectable New York Times bestseller, Savannah Blues, readers will feel the sultry Georgia breezes and taste sea salt in the air, as they lose themselves in a wonderful, witty tale brimming with sass and peopled by a richly endearing cast of delightfully eccentric characters. Revenge is sweeter than sweet in Mary Kay's capable hands, and readers of Fannie Flagg, Adriana Trigiani, Emily Giffin, Rebecca Wells, and Jill Conner Browne will definitely want to spend some quality time in Savannah.

From the Back Cover

Landing a catch like Talmadge Evans III got Eloise Weezie Foley a jewel of a town house in Savannah's historic district. Divorcing Tal got her exiled to the backyard carriage house, where she has launched a spite-fest with Tal's new fiancée, the elegant Caroline DeSantos.

An antiques picker, Weezie combs Savannah's steamy back alleys and garage sales for treasures when she's not dealing with her loopy relatives or her hunky ex-boyfriend. But an unauthorized sneak preview at a sale lands Weezie smack in the middle of magnolia-scented murder, mayhem...and more. Dirty deals simmer all around her--just as her relationship with the cutest chef in town heats up and she finds out how delicious love can be the second time around.
