Description
"From the author of Address to Die For, "an engaging . . . mystery that moves forward quickly with freshness, a few surprises, and a couple of real scares" (Kirkus Reviews).
Professional organizer Maggie McDonald has a knack for cleaning up other people's messes. So when the fiancée of her latest client turns up dead, it's up to her to sort through the untidy list of suspects and identify the real killer.
Maggie McDonald is hoping to raise the profile of her new Orchard View organizing business via her first high-profile client. Professor Lincoln Sinclair may be up for a Nobel Prize, but he's hopeless when it comes to organizing anything other than his thoughts. For an academic, he's also amassed more than his share of enemies. When Sinclair's fiancée is found dead on the floor of his home laboratory—electrocuted in a puddle of water—Maggie takes on the added task of finding the woman's murderer. To do so, she'll have to outmaneuver the suspicious, obnoxious police investigator she's nicknamed "Detective Awful" before a shadowy figure can check off the first item on their personal to-do list—Kill Maggie McDonald.
Praise for the Maggie McDonald Mysteries
"Abundant with friendly canine companions, from-the-hearth cooking, and banter between long-time friends, this novel serves up a chilling mystery warmed by likable characters and enviable setting." —KRL News & Reviews
"Bay Area residents will enjoy the heavy local angle." —San Jose Mercury News
"The setting is delightful . . . Maggie herself, in my opinion, is a major selling point for this new series, aside from the added value of her organizational advice."
