Franki’s plans to get hitched hit a serious snag… Wedding bells are ringing for Franki Amato. She’s overjoyed, and overstressed. Family and friends have gathered in New Orleans to see her tie the knot, and her mom and nonna are giving her marital advice she’d rather not get. But the walk down the aisle takes a hard right when someone drops dead at Bradley’s bachelor party, and he’s the main suspect. With only one week to go until the big day, Franki puts on her PI hat to save the date, quite literally. The investigation takes her places she’d rather not revisit, chief among them the creepy old Pharmacy Museum, the haunted garden behind St. Louis Cathedral, and her ex-stripper landlady’s costume closet. Even spookier, there are ghostly goings-on at the pasta-factory-turned-hotel where she’s staying, and an unknown person is leaving ominous objects too close to home—in her room. Will Franki identify the killer and get her happily ever after? Or will “Till death do us part” come far too soon? Sambuca Scarlet is book 10 in the Franki Amato Mysteries, but it can be read as a standalone story. If you like zany characters and laugh-out-loud humor with a splash of suspense, then you’ll drink up this fun series by USA Today Bestselling Author Traci Andrighetti. Cheers!
