Now, in <b>Miss Julia Takes Over</b>, with her sharp tongue and iron backbone intact, Miss Julia must tackle another disruption when Hazel Marie doesn't return from a dinner date with a fund-raiser who, in Miss Julia's opinion, wears his shorts too tight. Frantic and unable to persuade the local police that Hazel Marie is in danger, Miss Julia hires J. D. Pickens to investigate, despite her reservations about his taste for beer and women. She and Little Lloyd help search for Hazel Marie, running into adventures ranging from a most indelicate display of fisticuffs to a high-speed car chase on the track of a NASCAR Speedway, all the while standing strong ...because if Miss Julia doesn't take care of things, who will? <p/>Fast paced, funny, and full of colorful characters you'll want to meet again and again, <b>Miss Julia Takes Over</b> is a zany race through the South you'll not soon forget.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for Ann B.
