Girls Night Out!

           Girl's Night Out
    The Fairmont Pittsburgh was the scene where local celebrities gathered to celebrate the distinguished "Best Office Pet" award presented by Pittsburgh Magazine as part of their "Best of the Burg" issue. Graciously accepting the award was Edie of the Fairmont, who serves as a tour guide of the Golden Triangle on behalf of the hotel.
   Mystery author, Janet Winters, was on-hand to congratulate & celebrate Edie's success. "She's the perfect pooch" quipped Winters. "She's an ambassadress with style and grace. I taught her everything she knows." Edie said "Woof."

Ivy Snow’s days are numbered. That is if Bart Skeleton has his way. He’s been humiliated and incarcerated thanks to his ex-wife, and now he’s hell bent on revenge.

In Death at Heart’s Desire, former Olympic equestrian and magazine publisher, Ivy Snow, strives to fashion a new life for herself and her teenage twins, while bigamous ex-husband, Skeleton, serves hard time.  Former Olympic equestrian and amateur sleuth, Ivy Snow returns after a triumphant success in the thrilling mystery, Murder at Morgan House.
Her peaceful existence is short lived.
  After a daring prison escape that leaves a river of death in it’s wake, Skeleton hatches a diabolical plan to put Ivy in her rightful place...the graveyard. With the help of her psychic young daughter, Jaycee, and dashing paramour, Detective John Garrett, Ivy tries desperately to untangle Bart’s web of destruction before it’s too late.

Strolling Through The Garden of Good and Evil

Greetings all! Yes, I know it's been awhile since I've posted on "Get a Clue", but I've been crazy-busy! As a matter of fact, I've asked Ivy Snow to fill you all in on our trip to Savannah Georgia "The Hostess City of the South." Our visit was inspired by a favorite book (and movie) Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.

If you're not familiar, it's the story of Jim Williams, an international antiques dealer who lived at Mercer  House, a neo-classic mansion that is the setting for a brutal murder that rocked the genteel citizens of Savannah.

 So, without further ado...take it away Ivy....

"Hi everyone. It's nice to be back. Hopefully we've already met in Murder at Morgan House, but if not, I invite you to read the book. We really should get to know each other better. 


As for visiting Savannah, we packed an incredible amount of adventure into one whirlwind of a day! As Janet mentioned, the trip was inspired by the happenings at Mercer House as related in the novel, so let's begin there! 





We drove into Bull Street early Sunday afternoon, and fed a parking meter that was free on Sundays (typical.) We were immediately waylaid by an adorable Springer Spaniel named Belle, and her charming  as we strolled across Monterey Square on our way to tour Mercer House.
