**She's a young Martha Stewart...in Old Town Virginia!
New York Times bestselling author Krista Davis delights with the 14th
in her enormously popular and completely charming Domestic Diva Mystery
series, as entertaining maven Sophie Winston must cut to the core of
another murder investigation when members of an international tour group
begin dropping like flies all over Old Town, Virginia...
**
With Old Town's DIY Home Decorating Festival in full swing, Sophie's
swamped, juggling a bumper crop of artisans, antique dealers, and
decorators for the busy street fair. Still, when her best friend Nina
suddenly needs a ride from the airport, Sophie is happy to help...until
she sees Nina disembarking in a state of disarray. It's obvious the trip
to Portugal soured somewhere along the way. But after one of Nina's
traveling companions turns up murdered the following day, Sophie knows
something is truly rotten...
Though the crime scene is staged to look like an accident, Sophie isn't
fooled and peels off to conduct her own investigation. Her only clue is
a strange image the victim scratched into the soil before dying. Could
it point to a cryptic killer in Old Town? A bitter travel adversary? Or
a cursed artifact smuggled back from the trip? As the mystery grows, so
does the body count, and if Sophie doesn't pluck the murderer soon, her
best friend may be the next to fall...
