Welcome to Litsy!

What�s black and white and dead all over? Georgia bed and breakfast proprietor Nina Fleet finds out when she comes across a corpse in a penguin costume. Nina Fleet�s life ought to be as sweet as a Georgia peach. Awarded a tidy sum in her divorce, Nina retired at 41 to a historic Queen Anne house in quaint Cymbeline, GA. But Nina�s barely settled into her new B&B-to-be when a penguin shows up on her porch. Or, at least, a man wearing a penguin suit. Harry Westcott is making ends meet as an ice cream shop�s mascot and has a letter from his great-aunt, pledging to leave him the house. Too bad that�s not what her will says. Meanwhile, the Sisters of Perpetual Poverty have lost their lease. Real estate developer Gregory Bainbridge intends to turn the convent into a golfing community, so Cymbeline�s mayor persuades Nina to take in the elderly nuns. And then Nina finds the �penguin� again, this time lying in an alley with a kitchen knife in his chest. A peek under the beak tells Nina it�s not Harry inside the costume, but Bainbridge. What was he doing in Harry�s penguin suit? Was the developer really the intended victim, or did the culprit mean to kill Harry? Whoever is out to stop Harry from contesting the sale of his great-aunt�s house may also be after Nina, so she teams up with him to cage the killer before someone clips her wings in Peach Clobbered, Anna Gerard�s charming first Georgia B&B mystery.
