Book Review: Deborah Sharp’s Mama Does Time

The trouble’s for real: Mama found a body in the trunk of her vintage convertible, and the police think she’s the killer. It doesn’t help that the handsome detective assigned to the case seems determined to prove Mama’s guilt, or that the cowboy who broke Mace’s heart shows up at the local Booze ‘n’ Breeze in the midst of the investigation.
