Annie can hardly believe it. The police say her husband, Max, sits behind bars. They speak of him with a beautiful blonde. By the time Annie bails out Max, the blonde has disappeared and Max is the prime suspect in a crime. The baffling, bloodstained trail leads to the home of the Tarrants, a venerable Southern family with a violent history dating back to the Revolution -- and ghosts of a more recent vintage. Infighting and mayhem reign in the family, and a killer wants hide the secrets that haunt the Tarrants. It's up to Annie to stop him. "Chillingly effective, remarkably satisfying."

"This is my favorite book so far in the series. This book is done a little different than the ones before because the murder doesn't take place present day but in the past. I think doing it this way adds a different dimension to the story." — Mary (4 out of 5 stars)

" Good book that read at a fast pace and made me not want to put it down. I definitely thought I had the character nailed down and while there was definitely something going on there, at least my second choice was the one and there was a twist! "
" Cozy murder mysteries set out of a bookstore "Death On Demand." "
" I give up on this one. The writing is just too awful and I don't care enough about what happened to keep torturing myself. "
" This is a great read and nails "Southern Society" totally. Very entertaining. "
" Wasn't as wowed by this book as I was with by the first couple books in this series. It seems as the series goes on, the books get less interesting. Which really saddens me, because I LOVED this series at first. "
" Was never so glad to get through a book as I was this one. I"ve read other things my her but this one just dragged and was reading the game of CLUE. "
" I really enjoy this series. Just when I think I know who did it, I don't! Plenty of suspects you aren't sure of. "
" A little slow, a distinct lack of references to other mystery novels and writers (one of Hart's calling cards), and an unnecessarily convoluted family history. My least favorite of Hart's "Death on Demand" series so far. "
