Bless his heart! Poor old Butler Jenks gets blamed for everything that goes wrong in the tiny town of Sparrow Falls, North Carolina. Flowers that refuse to bloom. Sinks that overflow. Fires that happen mysteriously when no one is around. When a dead body is found in a locked room with no indication of whodunit, everyone wonders if the inept Butler could also be a perpetrator of murder. Everyone except amateur sleuths Tilda and Addie, who are not entirely convinced that Butler did it! In this clever sequel to A Distant Murder, characters fondly remembered from book one of the Sparrow Falls Mystery series are revisited and new characters introduced in a classic mystery puzzler evocative of the Golden Age.
