Misery Among The Irises Nadine Mellard-Bock

Beaumont, a small Tennessee town, prides itself on its beauty and small-town feel. But then two heinous murders of two of their own bursts upon the scene, casting the prominent Montgomery family under a haunting cloud of suspicion. Sylvester Montgomery will go to extremes that no son, husband, or father should have to, in hopes of saving his family, leaving the town's detective, Josh Lawford, wondering exactly what are the Montgomery's hiding. Meanwhile, Gladys, the matriarch of the Montgomery family, along with an unlikely alliance, will plummet her family into something far more dark and sinister, than they could ever imagine. As Josh Lawford searches for answers about both murders, and Sylvester is drawn further into a plot not of his making, the Montgomery family, through guile and pretense, will spiral through a web of deception in order to salvage their most precious asset: the Montgomery name.
