Rita Mae Brown

I really enjoy Rita Mae Brown's books. She writes mysteries as well as biographical fiction. She is from Virginia and since I have lived in similar areas to where she places her characters or have visited the areas - it makes it very easy for me to envision what and where the events are happening. I have become very fond of her two most prolific female protaganists - Harry and Sister. Harry (whose given name is Mary) is now almost 40 and has a knack to get into trouble. Sister (whose given name is Jane) is in her early 70's and is really a prim and proper Southern Lady. I love them both and love reading the books. But then I have never been disappointed in a Rita Mae Brown book yet and I have read most all of them.
