MEET OUR ATTORNEY SLEUTH>THE SETTINGThe Blue Ridge Mountain Mysteries are small-town Southern US mysteries, a love letter to the author's hometown - though with the outrageousness ramped up and the crimes more twisty than what really happens. South Carolina is a tiny state but boasts much variety, from the southern reaches of the Appalachian Mountain chain in the northwest corner to historic Charleston on the coast, which is a mix of 17th and 18th century Europe and the Deep South. The importance of family and good food welcome readers into the warm - and sometimes deadly - embrace of the South. More books by Cathy Pickens coming soon.
