In this updated version of the beloved mystery series, Nora Blackbird's new job working for the poisoned-pen Philadelphia society columnist heats up when Nora is implicated in the not-so-accidental death of a young woman who turns out to be a high society jewel thief. The unhappy wife of Nora's college flame is found drowned in a swimming pool with a garden gnome tied around her ankles. How can Nora solve this crime without implicating her former lover—or without ending things with the hot New Jersey wiseguy who'd much rather be skin-to-skin with Nora every night than help her solve a mystery.
Trouble is, Nora's exasperating sisters have problems that require her hands-on attention to rescue the family reputation. Will Libby deliver her baby at the worst possible moment? Or will tough-talking Emma need Nora's help extricating herself from a pesky cowboy boyfriend? And oh, yeah, between family emergencies, there's a murder to solve.
Nora needs to infiltrate the exclusive club of blue blood pilots who seem to spread mayhem wherever they fly. And she must question the low-rent casino boss who's always on the make among the rich and vulnerable debutantes. There are more colorful characters than a rainbow in Nora's wealthy circle of so-called friends. It's cocktails at six, haute couture at eight, and deadly murder at midnight for Nora Blackbird, Philadelphia's ritziest and most well-dressed sleuth.
"Smart intrigue dressed in cool couture." --Bestselling author Susan Anderson
