A TIME-HONORED SCHOOL MAY DAY PAGEANT TURNS DEADLY WHEN A SNIPER TAKES AIM — AND A WEALTHY MATRIARCH, A BEER BARAON’S DAUGHTER IS SHOT. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT KIKI WAS THE REAL TARGET
Unfortunately, the answer is YES.
After running for her life and huddling in a car until the all-clear is sounded, Kiki needs a shoulder to cry on. Instead, she gets chewed out by her browbeating mother. But things can always get worse…and they do.
When Kiki’s mother-in-law announces that she’s getting married, Kiki’s daughter, Anya, becomes unglued. Suddenly, Anya will be the last Lowenstein standing…and that’s enough to break a young girl’s heart. In the meantime, Kiki must cope with a grouchy, self-centered elderly mother, not to mention all the logistical problems that inevitably come with being a single mom.
Meanwhile, an old enemy has put out a contract on Kiki. She’s worth a lot more dead than alive, which isn’t surprising given the state of Kiki’s finances. This would be a good time to focus on work at the scrapbooking and craft store–except Kiki can’t shake the memory of those sniper shots raining down.
While creating a memorial album for the murdered bee heiress, Kiki discovers murky family politics that could be a motive for murder. With help from friends in high and low places, including hunky beau Chad Detweiler, Kiki finds herself facing a grave ultimatum: catch the killer or be cropped out of her own family album.
