Sassy's Place

For two years, Sassafras Magill has devoted herself to supporting her boyfriend through law school-paying his expenses, cheering him on, and dreaming of the day they'll marry. But when he finally graduates, passes the Bar, and lands a job in New York, he cruelly ends their relationship over dinner, ashamed of her Cerebral Palsy and unwilling to take her with him.

Heartbroken and furious, Sassy lashes out publicly, humiliating him in front of some of the town's most prominent citizens. Days later, he's found dead in the city park-his skull crushed by a rock. With motive and opportunity, Sassy becomes the prime suspect and is swiftly arrested for murder.

Now it's up to Darcy Jean Bower and her spirited, eccentric friend Millicent Cooper to uncover the truth. From a tangled web of secrets, lies, and long-buried grudges, they must find the real killer-before Sassy pays the ultimate price.
