Missing in Mudbug by Jana DeLeon review

This is part of the Ghost-in-law series that takes place in Mudbug, Louisiana.  One of the main, and yet oddest, characters is the late Helena, who had been murdered previously.  Only a few select people can see her, among them her former daughter-in-law, Maryse.  In life, Helena had been hard to get along with; in death, she is definitely one of the odder characters in this story.

I've enjoyed reading all of the Ghost-in-law books, and this is no exception.  Raissa, FBI agent and friend to Maryse, is kidnapped, and her husband, Luke is found by the side of the road seriously injured and unable to tell them what happened. The FBI agents brought in to solve the crime do not want to get the local Sheriff involved, but are unable to make any headway on the crime on their own.  So the local Sheriff and the local game warder team up with assistance from Maryse and Helena to help find Raissa.

The story is a little off-beat, a light read, but very enjoyable.  I'm looking forward to the next in the series.

This is part of my 2014 Mount TBR reading challenge, and the 2014 Cruisin' Thru the Cozies challenge.
