Who knew Book Clubs could be so dangerous?
Not Missy DeMeanor. At last week’s meeting, her best friend Noreen nearly came to blows with Anne Baxter over the merits of the book they were reading. After that unprecedented outburst, Missy never in a million years thought Anne Baxter would turn up dead in the middle of the next meeting.
Everyone immediately suspects Missy’s best friend, Noreen. Even her high school sweetheart and the current chief detective, Tyler Brock, thinks Noreen is guilty, leaving Missy no choice but to once again assume the mantel of private (but unpaid) investigator, only this time to prove her best friend’s innocence.
With the odds against her, Missy embarks on an investigation that dredges up long-standing grudges and some of the town’s deepest, darkest secrets. Despite all the evidence to the contrary, can Missy exonerate her friend…and keep off the ten pounds she just lost?
Books and bloodshed – Oh My! One of the book club members (Anne Baxter) seems to find fault with any book they read that isn't her choice, Missy's friend, Noreen, isn't happy and the two of them nearly end up physically fighting, the members decide to take a break and cool down, but when the re-convene 10 minutes later Anne isn't there, and then they find her dead, very dead, outside. Now Noreen has been arrested, no bail is allowed and she is going to trial in a week! Missy knows her friend can be hot headed but she also knows she isn't a killer, with Tyler (Missy's high school sweetheart) being told to wrap the case up quickly Missy sets about finding the true killer so Noreen can be released as soon as possible.
