Extended description

"A well written, by the book who-done-it that will enthrall purists. Charlie is a fabulous amateur sleuth." --Midwest Book Review

"Down to earth and very readable." --Library Journal

Charlie returns from her Hawaiian vacation to discover that her brother Ron is in love with a much younger woman. But cute little Vicky seems manipulative and full of secrets. Is it a case of male midlife crisis or is there something more devious going on?

Meanwhile, Charlie doesn't have much time to ponder Ron's problems. Her friend Sharon Ortega is a partner in a restaurant business with David Ruiz. When David turns up dead, an apparent suicide, Sharon comes to Charlie for help. Sharon's problem is a doubled-edged sword. If he did kill himself, David's life insurance won't pay and Sharon will probably lose the restaurant because she can't afford to hire a replacement for her partner. But if he didn't kill himself, then it was murder and Sharon could very well find herself a suspect
