Publisher Description
A new Miss Julia novel from New York Times best-selling author Ann B. Ross is a special treat for her devoted fans as well as those new to the adventures of the titular senior citizen. This time out, the proper Southern lady has a couple doozies on her plate. It seems that her friend Hazel's PI husband J.D. has gotten himself in some trouble in West Virginia-and he's one tirade away from landing in a jail cell. Meanwhile, a crew of misfits has followed wealthy Agnes Whitman back to Abbotsville, and they have all the makings of a crazy religious cult!

"I love the Miss Julia books. I have read them all. This one is like all the rest, but I feel comfortable with the character, and it is like visiting an old friend. This book has snake handling and tattooing and body piercing in it which adds to the interest. It also has an hilarious scene where Miss julia and Etta Mae put on a kidnapping from a hospital. If you have not read the series, I would recommend starting with book 1."

" Slower start than the previous dozen books...but Miss Julia doesn't fail in her outlandish capers and escapades. Enjoyable and fun--just perfect for reading while drinking peach iced tea! "
— Dana, 1/22/2014 -
" Thoroughly enjoyable! I am so glad that in 2004 I was attracted to 3 books on a library shelf - the first 3 books in the Miss Julia series. This is the thirteenth book and a lot of fun. I didn't even peek ahead this time! "
— Susan, 1/19/2014 -
" I do love Miss Julia. She and Etta Mae are at it again. There's a road trip, a missing Mr. Pickens, a cult, some snake handling, and plenty of sweet tea. This one goes down as one of my favorites. "

" just love these books...they make me smile! "
— Jeanne, 11/10/2013 -
" "Rescue" is the newest title in the delightful "Miss Julia" series. This book, as well as the other titles in the series, provides lots of fun and laughs from the exploits of Miss Julia, her family and friends. Each time that I read one of these books, I think of the "I Love Lucy" tv series. "
— Connie, 11/7/2013 -

— Patricia, 5/15/2013 -
" The yearly release of the new Miss Julia book has become an event I truly look forward too because I adore this series. This book was good but I felt like the "mystery" aspect of it wasn't up to snuff and fully explored. "
— Ken, 4/11/2013 -
" I found this book absolutely charming. I have not read any others in the series, and I haven't decided whether to do read more or not; however, this book and its main character really hit the spot. "
— Tara, 11/17/2012 -
" Excellent summer read - if you like Southern and mysteries - this was a joy to read. (Along the lines of the Mitford series in that you don't have to worry about language, and other themes...) "

— Janet, 6/13/2012 -
" These books are okay. Not great literature, but they don't claim to be. I read them more out of habit because I have read most of the others. 2.5 stars "
— Tammy, 6/7/2012 -
" Miss Julia is definitely growing on me. This one was funnier that previous ones, and also less plausible (the whole sheriff in WVA thing). From the way it ended, though, I feel this may be the last book in the series. "
— Patty, 5/27/2012 -
" Miss Julia, is always, awesome!! Such a fun read, and I love how she loves little Loyd now with all her heart. "
— Jennifer, 4/11/2012
