At a murder mystery-themed wedding reception on Georgia's picturesque
Peach Cove Island, the bride is doing an awfully good job playing
dead...
Marygene Brown always figured she'd marry her childhood sweetheart, Alex
Myers, not cater his wedding. But the Peach Diner could use the
exposure. Most of the island is showing up--although more for the
role-playing murder game at the reception than for the widely loathed
bridezilla, Lucy Carmichael. Marygene may have to smile through the
festivities, but Mama doesn't have to hold her peace--especially since
only Marygene can hear her mother's ghost. Mama says she sees an aura of
darkness around the wedding.
So when Marygene finds Lucy lying beside the wedding cake, buried in
batter, with no pulse, it looks like Mama called it. This is no game.
And when the bride's body simply vanishes, it's up to Marygene and her
best friend Betsy (cousin to the groom and no fan of the bride) to solve
a real-life mystery--with a little help from Mama's sassy spirit...
