It's the best of times and the worst of times for Kate Stevens. Recently transplanted from the rocky shores of coastal Maine to the charming Western town of Sage Hills, Texas, Kate's career as a crochet designer and author is finally taking flight. At the same time, there are spooky nocturnal goings-on in the neighborhood she now calls home. Strange sounds at night emanating from the back yard of the house next door have put Kate on edge. The house has been vacant and for sale for months, but has something sinister taken up residence there? Then there is the problem with an online "friend" who has become antagonistic and begins a series of cyber-stalking attacks. Will Kate discover who the stalker is while he is still at arm's length? Or will the orbits of cyberspace and reality collide and threaten Kate's career, family and her very life?

Spring knocks on Kate Stevens' door with the promise of the renewal of life and hope as she prepares for the publication of her second book, and the blooming azalea garden at the home of a well known judge seems the perfect photographic backdrop. Little does Kate realize that the pastoral setting is about to take a macabre twist of fate. When a gardener unearths a tragedy hidden for decades, Kate and her best friend and neighbor, Vivi Lawrence, set out to solve the mystery. Who is this apparent victim of violence? How long has he languished unknown beneath the Texas sod? Dead men may indeed tell no tales, but Kate and Vivi are determined to hear the truthful testimony of the azalea bones.

Now it's up to Kate to prove him innocent. She and her best friend, Vivi Lawrence, find themselves in the seany and dangerous world of Fort Worth's nightlife in an all-out attempt to do just that.

When Kate Stevens and her good friend, Vivi Lawrence, are invited to a high society benefit in an exclusive part of Sage Hills, little do they know the mysterious events about to unfold.

Kate attends the gala dressed as Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With the Wind, while Vivi, in her inimitable style, is disguised as Catwoman. The frivolity of the evening turns deadly serious the next day when priceless jewelry turns up missing, and Vivi is at the center of the criminal investigation. Kate is confident her friend is innocent, and she sets out to solve the mystery before jail doors slam shut in Vivi's face. But every clue seems to lead down a Texas-size rabbit hole. Kate desperately looks for the real crook, even as the facts of the case point more and more toward Vivi. Helping Kate is Peter Mathews, the dashing Fort Worth PD homicide detective who is also her "more than just a friend." But in a case that is outside his jurisdiction, Peter must walk a thin line while trying to keep Kate out of trouble.
