*What Happened on Beale Street* is an exciting addition to the Secrets of the South Mysteries from bestselling author Mary Ellis. These standalone, complex crime dramas follow a private investigator's quest to make the world a better place...solving one case at a time.
A cryptic plea for help from a childhood friend sends cousins Nate and Nicki Price from New Orleans to Memphis, the home of scrumptious barbecue and soulful blues music. When they arrive at Danny Andre's last known address, they discover signs of a struggle and a lifestyle not in keeping with the former choirboy they fondly remember.
Danny's sister, Isabelle, reluctantly accepts their help. She and Nate aren't on the best of terms due to a complicated past, yet they will have to get beyond that if they want to save Danny.
On top of Danny's alarming disappearance and his troubled relationship with Isabelle, Nate also has to rein in his favorite cousin's overzealousness as a new and eager PI. Confronted with a possible murder, mystery, and mayhem in the land of the Delta blues, Nate must rely on his faith and investigative experience to keep one or more of them from getting killed.

I had two problems with What Happened on Beale Street. The first was that solving the question of what happened on Beale Street-the murder of Danny Andre-didn't seem to be the focus on the novel. Instead, it seemed like it was little more than a handy plot device to get newly-licensed private investigator Nicki Price from her home in New Orleans to Memphis, so she could investigate a fifty-year-old mystery in hotel. \\r\\n\\r\\nMy second problem was that I didn't warm to Nicki Price, and I liked her fianc, Hunter Galen, even less. This is perhaps my fault, because this is the second book in Mary Ellis's Secrets of the South Mysteries series, and I haven't read the first, Midnight on the Mississippi. This Nicki and Hunter, and maybe I'd have liked them better if I'd read the first book. As it was, Nicki came across as nave and lacking intelligence, while Hunter came off as arrogant and controlling. \\r\\n\\r\\nSure, it was a solid mystery novel with a developing romance, but it wasn't as satisfying as I'd hoped. \\r\\n\\r\\nThanks to Harvest House Publishers and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for revi
