I'm being overrun by books and need to get rid of some. Therefore on a registering frenzy!
OK cosy mystery about a woman investigating her cousin's death.

Thanks puppymummy.
cover:
Some people might call Callahan Garrity nosy, but she prefers to think of her tendency toward snooping as a healthy interest in the truth. So when news of her cousin's murder reaches her, Callahan shakes off her House Mouse cleaning uniform to don her detective's cap. It's not that she doesn't have confidence in the Atlanta police - she used to be among their ranks - it's just that the crime seems too incongruous with Patti's suburban life to be an accident.
Callahan's search takes her on a convoluted trail starting with Patti's priest, who may have provided more than spiritual counsel, through Atlanta's inner city and into the shady deals of Patti's recently prosperous husband. The pieces start to fall into place, but not everyone is as fond of the truth as Callahan, because the closer she gets to it, the harder it is to stay alive.

I didn't like any of the characters much so it was hard to get into the story. In the end I didn't care enough about them to finish it.

One of many stowaways in a big baggie! Thanks cats.
PLW totally agrees with you, catsalive. She did finish it though. Said it had potential but was very badly executed.
Now to find it a new home...
