Dr. J.J. Graves, Bloody Mary's resident coroner and fourth-generation mortician, is no stranger to death, but this rainy spring weekend in Virginia is testing even her ironclad resolve. With a full moon and Friday the thirteenth casting an eerie spell, J.J. and her sheriff husband, Jack Lawson, are slammed with a deluge of bodies—a beloved coach blown apart by a shotgun, a young woman brutally stabbed and dumped in a creek, and a string of bizarre deaths that pile up faster than the floodwaters.
As J.J. navigates the gruesome crime scenes, she's also grappling with personal pressures—trying to conceive a child and wrestling with the ghosts of her criminal family's past. When the investigation points to a shocking betrayal in their tight-knit community, J.J. and Jack must unravel a web of lies to catch a killer before the rising waters wash away the truth. With her signature wit, a cast of quirky locals, and a knack for finding justice in the darkest corners, J.J. proves once again why she's the heart and soul of King George County.
Perfect for fans of gritty, character-driven mysteries, Dirty Weekend is a pulse-pounding blend of suspense, small-town drama, and heartfelt moments that will leave you craving the next J.J. Graves adventure. Grab your copy now and dive into a case as stormy as the Virginia skies!
