Mystery Cozy
For fifty-one weeks of the year, Heather McNeil loves her
job as assistant to the director of the Washington, D.C.
Commerce & Market ShowWashington DC Market Show Center.
But the Gifts and Home Decorations trade show, the biggest
show of the year at the center, is a week-long nightmare.
This year’s version is being worse than usual. Misplaced
shipments, feuding exhibitors, and malfunctioning popcorn
machines are all in a day’s work. Finding the body of a
murdered executive dumped in a trash bin during the show
isn’t. The discovery tips throws Heather’s life—personal
and professional—into havoc. The police have reason to suspect the victim’s wife killed
him, but Heather doesn’t believe it. She’s gotten seen
glimmers of an entirely different scenario and possible
motive, but questioning exhibitors about the crime doesn’t
make her popular with them or with her employers. Still,
other lives might be at risk, and if she doesn’t identify
the murderer before the show ends, the culprit could well
remain free to kill again. Her only help comes from a company executive with ulterior
motives and the Market Center’s attractive new security
officer, Scott Brandon. Despite opposition from some of
the exhibitors, her employers, and the police, Heather
seeks to expose the killer before the show ends. To solve
the mystery, she will havehas to risk what’s most
important to her and be prepared to fight for answers, her
job, and possibly her life.
