Suburban squabbles reveal darker secrets in this mystery from the New York Times-bestselling author who "writes with sparkle and warmth" (Chicago Sun Times).

Ever since local developer Fred Stanton and his wife, Mimi, built five modular homes next door to Lucy Stone's farmhouse, life hasn't been the same. With Mimi complaining about everything from the state of Lucy's lawn to another neighbor's lovable dog, quaint Tinker's Cove, Maine, is now entangled in cul-de-sac politics and backstabbing. And when Mimi doesn't show up for her shift at The Hat and Mitten Fund bake sale, the scent of burnt sugar leads Lucy to a shocking discovery: Mimi, face down on her kitchen floor -- with a knife in her back.

While the police start their investigation, reporter Lucy gets busy writing up the murder for the Pennysaver -- and following a few leads of her own. Lucy knows the women in her neighborhood didn't like Mimi, but they certainly didn't want her dead... did they?
