A Hated Matriarch. A Family of Suspects.Â
Crotchety, irritable, self-centered, rich Miss Annamae Dyer has been found clubbed to death in her study, and who had a reason to kill her?
Just about everyone. From her conniving, scheming nephew Robert, who inherited most of her considerable fortune; to her nieces, cool, superior Katherine Yates and artsy, hot-tempered Marie Mackenzie, both mysteriously written out of Annamae's will; to her cousin, Donna Skelly, who has been put upon and abused by the whole family; to her cold-as-ice personal assistant Taylor Bradfordâ€"none of them liked her.
In fact, none of them much liked each other, either.
In a family where every-man-for-himself is the watchword, and there's a cool couple of millions at stake, someone wanted the old lady out of the way.
But who... and why?
Now, silver-haired Parsifal Snowe and his team of agents have to tease apart the evidence and sift through the lies and the deception and the secrecyâ€"in order to find out who killed a nasty-tempered old lady whose death went unlamented by just about everybody she knew.
