The Golden Girls meets Remington Steele in Lee Hollis' fifth
mystery set in a Palm Springs retirement community, featuring retired
actress-turned-PI Poppy Harmon and her Desert Flowers Detective
Agency!
Poppy never planned on speaking to her old acting rival Serena Saunders
again, let alone accepting her as a client. But familiar drama barges
back into her life when Serena requests an urgent background check on
Ned Boyce, her fiancé, before tying the knot. And the flighty film star
is behaving out of character by wishing to start over with Poppy--this
time as friends . . .
Wealthy, connected, and the owner of a breathtaking mountaintop home,
Ned seems like the most unlikely private investigation subject in Palm
Springs. Poppy no sooner thinks she's nailed down her latest assignment
than Serena is caught holding a smoking gun over a stranger's dead body
. . .
With Serena claiming self-defense and the wedding fast approaching, the
Desert Flowers team must summon their showbiz talents to expose the
truth about the unknown victim. But as her former enemy finds herself in
another devastating position, only Poppy can determine who's innocent
and who's ready to smile for their mug shot . . .
