Booklist Review

When Ana Mae Futrell dies, her estranged siblings reluctantly gather in Drapersville, North Carolina, for the funeral. But what JoJo, who had to pawn her wedding ring to pay for the flight from Vegas; Delcine, who goes by Marguerite in snootier DC circles; and Clayton, who brings his life partner from San Francisco, did not count on was the fact that their house-cleaner sister was a millionaire. And it's all theirs if they can decipher the clues in the quilt she left behind. They are up against Reverend Toussaint Too Sweet le Baptiste; Ana Mae's best friend, Rosalee; and Ana Mae's son, Howard the son nobody knew about. This is just the first of many secrets Ana Mae's siblings uncover, all the while learning what their sister meant to the town and, if they can set aside petty differences long enough, to each of them. Mason packs on the twists, with all the Futrells having dramas of their own as they put the pieces of Ana Mae's life together. Readers will laugh, cry, and be glad they got to know Ana Mae and her crazy life.--Maguire, Susan Copyright 2014 Booklist
