Overview

Murder, media, mayhem-and maybe love-await in this witty small-town mystery, perfect for fans of Stephanie Plum and Finlay Donovan. Despite a few harrowing incidents with nervy Bridezillas, Addy Winters' small town party planning business has been 100% murder free-until now. Everything changes when her former classmate, now a legendary rockstar, comes home to Fox Valley to die. Leno Masterson's dying wish is a star-studded 'after-I'm-dead' extravaganza in place of a funeral, and who better to plan it than his old friend Addy? But when he turns up dead four days earlier than the date-with-death he's circled on his calendar, Addy suspects that somebody helped him along. Sure, he left a melodramatic goodbye letter and his right-to-die paperwork is all in order, but something feels wrong. With a flair for events and a knack for nosing into trouble, Addy's on the case, dragging her family, friends, and Leno's older brother along with her. She's woefully unprepared for the inevitable media onslaught and the secrets her nearest and dearest are hiding, but nothing is going to stop her from getting justice for Leno- and throwing a killer party while she's at it.
