Miss Julia takes over / Ann B. Ross.
In the first book, Miss Julia, a recent widow, is presented with one Hazel Marie Puckett and her nine-year son, Little Lloyd, who bears a striking resemblance to Miss Julia's late husband. In the sequel, Miss Julia, Hazel Marie Puckett, and Little Lloyd have formed a familial bond which creates the plot for this book. It results in a hair-raising car chase on the track of NASCAR's North Carolina Speedway.
Miss Julia is now Little Lloyd's guardian and fast friends with his mother. So she's frantic when Hazel Marie disappears after a dinner date with a church fund-raiser, who, in Miss Julia's opinion, wears his shorts too tight: "nobody can be that upright and pious without trouble going on underneath." Since the sheriff won't help her, Miss Julia takes matters into her own hands and, with Little Lloyd in tow, finds herself tracking Hazel Marie all across North Carolina. From a most ungenteel display of fisticuffs to a hair-raising car chase, Miss Julia stands strong and forges ahead. Because...if Miss Julia doesn't take care of things, who will?
