From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jana DeLeon, the sixth installment in the bestselling Miss Fortune series.
When Celia Arceneaux was elected mayor of Sinful, Louisiana, Fortune Redding expected trouble. The woman has an unmatched talent for making the worst of any situation, especially if it means getting revenge on her sworn enemies Ida Belle and Gertie.
At the Fourth of …
At the Fourth of July celebration, an explosion rocks Sinful and it’s not from fireworks. Most people assume it was a moonshine still, but when evidence points to a meth lab deep in the bayous of Sinful, Fortune realizes how dire the situation is for the tiny town. With Carter on medical leave and no one left at the sheriff’s department who can handle the investigation, Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie decide to take matters into their own hands.
This is (another) mission for Swamp Team 3.

Soldiers of Fortune is the sixth book in Jana DeLeon’s Miss Fortune Mystery series. It’s the 4th of July in Sinfull, Louisianna. Celia Arceneaux, the recently elected mayor is in charge, and things are not going well. Despite her election being contested, she’s fired the sheriff and replaced him with her worthless cousin. When a meth lab explodes in the swamp and the newly appointed sheriff does nothing, Fortune Redding, along with Gertie and Ida Belle, take matters into their own hands and open an investigation. More laughs and great entertainment from Jana DeLeon.
I’m going to have to put a limit on buying these books. I’ve been going through them too quickly for my bank account. It’s almost impossible not to. Once you finish one, you immediately want the next one. Uproarious escapism! Grab one–or all of them!
It’s Fortune, Ida Belle and Gertie to the rescue while Carter is recovering and the new mayor is trying to run Sinful into the ground. But will they be able to keep Celia Arceneaux and her shenanigans from destroying the town? Or will the mysterious explosion on the fourth of July do it for them.
I just love these characters, the well written dialogue and the support cast of people in Sinful are laugh out loud.
The only downside I sped through it but on to book 7…
Love the whole series
Explosions and Mayhem
You need to read 1 – 5 of the series before reading this one.
Limited, very very limited strong language – No F bombs
No Sex
Romance in the air
Action
Screwball comedy
Fortune and her two VietNam Vet friends get themselves involved in tracking down who caused the explosion out in the swamp. Most residents figured it was just another still, but clues found by our characters suggest otherwise.
Fast reading, fun, amusing hijinks
If you’re looking for light amusement this series may be what you need.
Love this series
This is a fast paced, fun addition to this series.
These Miss Fortune books are wonderful!
Swamp Team 3 rides again! This time the girls just might be in over their heads when they take on a “to big for her britches” mayor and a crooked Sheriff. Although teaming up with unlikely allies just might be the smartest thing they have ever done. Hang on to your seat this is a thrill read.
awesome – I read them ALL!
I love this series!
All of the Fortune books are wonderful. Start at the beginning and try to keep up. I laughed out loud at some of the antics of Fortune and her ladies. Highly recommend.
Read through several books of the series while at the beach. Good easy read and caught myself laughing out loud at some of the antics. I could picture the characters in my mind and they reminded of people I know…which made it even more humorous. I recommended it to several other people and they have now read through all the books in the series as well.
This book is wonderful.. The whole series is great. This book will keep you on your toes. You will not want to put it down. You will be laughing the whole time. The characters are some funny.
