As Penny's suspicions gradually point to the wealthy Dimola clan, her colleague Toby Glendower begins to probe into the family's past in Italy.
There is another murder, and Penny resolves to set a trap for her prime suspect, using herself as bait. But what Toby uncovers sends him racing back, fearful that Penny is making a disastrous mistake maybe her last.
I wasnt familiar with this author. I bought the book a few years ago and started it several times. I finally found time to read it in its entirety and once i got into it I was hooked. It was very very good. The end will surprise you and you of course toggle through the list of suspects. I will definately be buying more of her books.
Great summer read!

Penny Spring, the main character in this humorous mystery describes herself as... 'five-foot-one, plumpish, and with a face like an intelligent monkey's'... and will endear herself to you from the very first page! The entire book is filled with this character's special brand of humor and is a delight to read. The murder mystery which takes place on Cape Cod is quite baffling and has many twists and turns. Penny Spring and her wonderfully lovable side-kick, Toby Glendower, save the day! Not a very long book, so it is a quick read for a rainy weekend, or a sunny day at the beach. You will truly love this one!
