Summary

In the new Perfect Proposals mystery from the author of Bodice of Evidence and Engaged in Murder , a country club wedding reception becomes the scene of a baffling crime.

The wedding for Pepper Pomeroy's sister Felicity starts with dearly beloved but it ends with dearly departed when Ashley, the bartender Pepper befriended earlier in the evening, drops dead from a lethal nightcap. Authorities think it's just a tragic accident. After all, who'd want to kill a virtual stranger at a country club wedding reception? That's what Pepper wants to know.

A search into Ashley's past reveals a twisty path of secret sororities, well-connected enemies, and an unsolved slaying still shadowing members of high society--including a filthy-rich battle-ax whose demands for the services of Pepper's Perfect Proposals are starting to sound more like veiled threats. Pepper's business may be booming but continued success means outsmarting a mysterious culprit who's still wedded to the idea of murder.
