Dem Bones' Revenge

A MOTHER ALWAYS KNOWS...

Novelist Tracy Eaton's mystery series is in jeopardy unless she rewrites her latest whodunit in two days. Okay, that pressure she can handle, but when her mother, the aging yet beautiful film goddess Martha Collins, becomes prime suspect in the murder of a celebrity lawyer, Tracy must save Mom from jail--if, of course, she doesn't strangle her first.

The victim, Vince Sperry, had ties to both Tracy's attorney husband, Drew, and her eccentric dad, aging Hollywood heartthrob Alex Grainger--and both had reason to want Sperry dead. But did good of Mom help out? Clearly, Martha's attempts to impede Tracy's efforts at every turn only convince her long-suffering daughter that Mom has pulled a doozy this time. The clues all lead to the past, to a string of Hollywood scandals, buried secrets, old screenplays and even older grudges. But what is Martha Collins hiding? And will the truth just kill her daughter?
