Rubbed Out (A Memphis BBQ Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
It wasn’t just rain, either—it was more like flooding. This meant that there was a whole lot of mud on the festival grounds at Tom Lee Park. Despite the gray clouds and rain, Memphis was still beautiful with the springtime blooming of dogwoods, multicolored azaleas, and Bradford pear trees.Lulu stood ankle deep in mud and wore a slicker covered with pigs as she surveyed the Graces’ booth later that evening. Fortunately for her, her ankles were inside a pair of checkered rubber rain boots. Even with the rain, there were thousands of people in the park.“At least the mud made it super easy to put the tent poles in,” said Evelyn in a chipper voice, nodding to the booth’s structure.“Not that you had anything to do with putting those poles in,” grumbled Cherry. Her red hair made a shocking contrast to the hot pink poncho she was wearing.Evelyn raised her carefully plucked eyebrows. “My, but you’re the cranky one, Cherry. You’re right, though. I didn’t help much with the actual booth construction.”Flo shrugged.
