Publisher Description
A dead body in the trunk of a car. It's the Kansas City mob's signature.
So why is a member of Ellison's circle found shot in his sedan at the country club?
Did Baxter Phelps have ties to the mafia? Did they make him an offer he couldn't refuse? Is Baxter's widow Helen in danger?
As Ellison is drawn into a dangerous investigation, she can't help but think maybe this time Mother is right. She should mind her own business.

Come on! Buy it! Read it! You KNOW you want to!🥰
Julie Mulhern is a magical author. Just when you think she has peaked and can’t possibly get any better than the book already in your hand, she pulls a rabbit out of her hat and proves you wrong! Once again Ellison uses her knowledge of the Country Club set, combines it with an intelligent mind and a backbone that has steadily become encased in steel and assists her heaven-sent detective of a husband in solving crime in Kansas City. She is no longer a push-over for anybody. When a body is found, finally, by someone other than herself, Ellison is momentarily relieved. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long to make it a major concern. You do NOT want the Mob on your tail! When her family is threatened, she goes into action with highly effective (and in some cases, downright humorous) results!! The red herrings rum amok and you will stay guessing until the very end, but it is SOOO worth it! I’ve read my first read and found out “who-done-it”. I now plan to sit back, relax and enjoy my second read. And maybe a third…I always catch something new and different that I missed the first time!
BTW, I loved the introduction of the new character, Honoria. I hope she becomes a recurrent one. I figure she and Aunt Sis could really set KC on its ear! 💖
