Hayley Powell, food and cocktails columnist for Bar Harbor's Island
Times, is. . .well, kind of broke. So when she's selected for that
extreme coupon-clipping reality game show coming to town. . .
. . . she's thrilled, especially when her competition is nasty nurse
Candace Culpepper. But when Haley stumbles across a
face-down-in-the-snow Candace--scissors gleaming between her
shoulders--she knows the next thing she'll be selected for will probably
be a police line-up.
Meanwhile, though Hayley's BFF Mona was only joking about taking Candace
out, Bruce Linney, the Island Times crime reporter, definitely isn't
laughing. And what about the smarmy, cold-hearted host of the show, Drew
Nickerson, who may have been having a steamy affair with the
intentionally-iced nurse? Hayley needs to cut to the chase and find the
killer. Everything may hinge on a stray coupon, but Hayley better keep
her eyes on the real grand prize: staying out of permanent cold storage!
Includes seven delectable recipes from Hayley's kitchen!
