About this ebook

What would you do if your husband had a celebrity crush?

When Mollie McGhie attends the grand opening of her friend’s nail salon, she’s looking forward to getting a manicure and sipping on champagne. The event is going great until Mollie discovers a dead body near the beach. When her friend’s brother is arrested for murder, things get even worse.

During the course of Mollie’s investigation, she has to do some crazy things, including auditioning for a game show, giving a pedicure to the local chief of police, and listening to her cat play the ukulele. And, if that wasn’t enough to deal with, she also has to put up with her husband’s silly crush on a television celebrity.

Can Mollie get to the truth and find out who the real murderer is?
