With her inherited house, an unusually large dog, and a jam-packed
committee calendar, Abby McCree keeps busy in her adopted town of
Snowberry Creek in the Pacific Northwest even when she isn't
investigating the occasional murder! When a dead body turns up on a 5K
charity race route, Abby hits the ground running to catch a killer in
this fifth installment by USA Today bestselling author Alexis Morgan.
Overcommitted Abby has once again been drafted to use her organizing
superpowers--this time for a 5k charity run that's part of the Founder's
Day Celebration in Snowberry Creek, Washington. At least she has help,
albeit from an unlikely source: Gil Pratt, a member of her handsome
tenant Tripp Blackston's veterans group and co-owner of a motorcycle
repair shop with his brother. Abby and Gil may seem like an odd couple,
but they work great together.
The event seems to be running smoothly--until city council member James
DiSalvo is found murdered in a ravine along the race route.
Unfortunately, Gil's brother Gary had a very public argument with
DiSalvo minutes before the race, making him the prime suspect. Now the
two race organizers must again team up to prove Gary's innocence--before
the real killer makes a run for it. But one wrong step and Abby may be
the next one to come in dead last...
