Oh, how I love this series! This novella centers around Frances Walford, the main character's mother. Frances is always telling her daughter Ellison, that she has to stop finding dead bodies so when it happens to her she is mortified. Fortunately Ellison is out-of-town and Frances is able to persuade the homicide detective, Anarchy Jones, to keep her name out of it. Frances does manage to get involved in the mystery without her being named.

Will Anarchy ever use this information against Frances? Must be helpful to have the police helping to keep you out of trouble! ( )
