I'm going to sum it up in few words -- who else could make me laugh out loud in a murder mystery. Yes bad people get killed. Blood gets spilled. But Craig finds the humor and tickles the reader until she gets what she wanted. Not just a smile, or giggle but a true out loud laugh. You can't help it.

Savanna Edwards was just getting over a very trying divorce only marginally worse than her actual marriage. She was facing down a repo man getting ready to tow her car and was she supposed to be feeling better because he was wearing a Santa costume? Hey let's get real here. That's not in line with season's greetings.

Savanna is royally pissed especially since it seems the car in question was used as collateral by her cheating ex Clint. She got the car in the divorce but it seems she neglected to go the extra mile -- no pun intended -- and have the title changed. So Savanna did what any law abiding citizen would do it this case -- she banged on the door of her neighbor Mark the cop. Only he isn't a regular cop he is a homicide investigator but he does the best he can -- which was absolutely nothing.

Not the most auspicious way to finally meet your neighbor for either Savanna or Mark. And it looks like it is going to go downhill from there real fast. Still hurting over her mother's death, her divorce, and now repossessed car Savanna is quite vocal about how she feels about her ex. But none of that prepared her for what she was soon to discover -- her ex dead as in murdered. And the list of suspects keeps growing exponentially longer by the day.

Great story jammed pack in a novella filled with Craig's signature dialog, somewhat crazy characters and of course an ingenious plot line that will have you guessing to the end. Absolutely a joy to read.
