Dance on His Grave — Sylvia Dickey Smith

Sidra Smart, rookie private eye, struggles to survive her own internal conflicts as she plunges into a surreal world of passion and murder. Fifty-year-old Sidra Smart is not your ordinary rookie private eye. A recently divorced preacher's wife, she knows nothing about running the private detective business she's just inherited from her brother. But soon her first client bursts in with vague flashbacks of a grisly thirty-year-old murder. The story takes place in and around Orange, Texas, in the borderlands where Texas and Louisiana meet, a region filled with colorful characters, good food, and dark secrets.
