They’re back . . . !

 

In her much-loved New York Timesbest-selling Sisterhood series, Fern Michaels proves that payback is worth waiting for, especially when it’s delivered by expert hands. And although the Sisterhood has officially put their vigilante days (mostly) behind them, some challenges are impossible to resist . . .

 

The steadfast friends known as the Vigilantes have learned a lot since they started righting wrongs on behalf of underdogs everywhere. But sometimes, justice is a long time coming. That’s the case with Julie Wyatt, whose story is one that sadly strikes close to home for the original founder of the Sisterhood, Myra Rutledge, and her best friend—and fellow Sister—Annie. Julie’s son, Larry, died under mysterious circumstances and Julie is convinced that her greedy daughter-in-law, Darlene “Jimmy” Jimson, had something to do with it. She desperately wants to get a confession out of Darlene—and to ensure the safety of Larry’s daughter, Olivia.

 

Arriving at Julie’s home in picturesque Rosemont, Alabama, Myra and Annie begin to piece together a plan. There are other newcomers in town too, including Julie’s new tenant, Mace Carlisle. As Mace warms to Julie’s wonderful home cooking and easy companionship, Myra and Annie dig deeper into Darlene’s shady dealings, closing in on her to set the trap. And as events unfurl in a way that no one could have predicted, each will learn the true meaning of loyalty, courage—and the kind of friendship that can create miracles . . .
