  • "Biggie Weatherford and her grandson J.R., in town to learn how to start a historical society, investigate the murder of a young woman in the courtyard of an inn in Quincy, Texas."
  • "While visiting neighboring Quincy, Biggie encounters an inn with a ghost and a mysterious death to investigate."
  • "J.R. accompanies his sleuthing grandmother, Biggie, to a neighboring town where they find themselves embroiled in a murder investigation after J.R. stumbles across the body of a young woman and the ailing sheriff asks for Biggie's aid."@en
  • "The endearing Biggie Weatherford and her grandson J.R. of Job's Crossing, Texas, make a welcome return in the fifth installment of this charming series. Biggie has shepherded a select group of citizens to the east Texas town of Quincy to study how its historical society transformed a decrepit river port into a successful tourist destination. J.R., who would rather have gone camping, is at least looking forward to the ghost said to inhabit the inn where the group will be staying. Unfortunately, J.R.'s encounter with the ghost is followed promptly by the discovery of a dead body floating in the courtyard fountain. The local sheriff, knowing of Biggie's previous exploits, asks her to help solve the murder. As she proceeds, ably assisted by J.R and her handyman-chauffeur Rosebud Robichaux, Biggie finds herself enmeshed in a tangle of family feuds. As in the series' other installments, it's the town and its highly idiosyncratic characters that make it all work. Think of Miss Marple's St. Mary Mead set in Texas, and you'll get the idea."@en
