What if retirement isn’t the utopia it’s cracked up to be? Helen Rogers never imagined that she’d be bored at Sunny Days Retirement Village in lovely Peachtree Valley, Georgia, but she wasn’t expecting to start this phase of life as early as her fifties, either. Then fate gave her a hand in solving her friend’s murder, and the sense of accomplishment was heady. But was it a fluke? Fate answers again when she stumbles over her second dead body, the city’s deputy mayor. The corpse is barely cold before the mayor’s wife is killed in a suspicious accident. Bodies are piling up—so Helen and her buddy, Carol Adams, take the next enroll in PI classes, apply for her license, and open an official investigation firm. Helen has found her purpose, and it comes with new partners and a handsome assistant, Ted Morgan. Yet business will grind to halt before it gets off the ground unless she can break open the truth. Plenty of folks have a motive, but which one of the suspects is desparate enough to plan such elaborate murders?
