Birthdays are a time for celebration…and murder? Daisy and her family travel to sunny Florida to help celebrate Jake’s grandmother’s 100th birthday, intent on reconnecting with Jake’s extended family and enjoying the sites. Things immediately hit a snag, though, when Daisy finds a dead woman in Aunt Gloria’s kitchen: Agnes Clutterbuck, a neighbor and archenemy of Jake’s aunt. As Daisy and Jake try to prepare for the big birthday bash and fulfill promises of Disney World visits to the kids, the investigation around Agnes’ death intensifies, and Aunt Gloria is soon considered the prime suspect. Despite Jake’s pleas, Daisy can’t leave things alone and she soon discovers that Gloria isn’t the only one with the motive to kill Agnes. The senior citizen community is filled with residents who disliked Agnes, and the pool of potential suspects grows. But local law enforcement is determined to pin the crime on Gloria. With time of the essence, Daisy realizes it’s up to her to solve the mystery before it’s too late. Because they still have a birthday to celebrate.
