The second in the acclaimed Jennifer Marsh mystery series!
Unpublished author and reluctant amateur detective Jennifer Marsh doesn't know how she keeps finding herself in the middle of a murder. Okay, the first one was her fault (she framed herself) but this one is just bad luck: catching her good friend, Emmie Walker standing over her dead ex-husband, Edgar, holding a bloody knife.
Jennifer's sure Emmie is innocent. She's a sweet senior citizen who is way too smart to do something so stupid. So what if she has motive (her former husband was loaded and she'd gain ownership over his successful chain of restaurants) and opportunity (found holding a knife over his body)? She's not the only one.
Edgar Walker was not a nice man. People were probably standing in line to murder him. The question is who got to him first?
With help from her quirky writer's group; gorgeous, cranky reporter Sam; and her own fictional heroine Maxie Malone, Jennifer's determined to get to the bottom of this... before Emmie's convicted based on Jennifer's own eyewitness testimony.
"...one of the funniest new mystery authors since Janet Evanovich....see why mystery fans are still laughing!"
