Without a job or a date in sight, Jaine is equally out of luck in finance and romance. So when her friend Lance offers to treat her to brunch at the Four Seasons, Jaine leaps at the chance like a fashionista at a pair of half-price Louboutins. Theyβve barely made it through the menu when Lance spots his friend Bunny. Dressed like a million bucksβand probably worth twice thatβBunny is the new trophy wife of mattress maven Marvin Cooper.
The police arrest Lance, but Jaine knows his murderous urges end at her closet door. She sets out to clear his name and discovers a list of suspects longer than Bunnyβs credit card bill. Did Mattress Marv get tired of his little bunny hopping into another manβs bed, or did a jealous boy-toy fix her a fatal cocktail? Marvβs ex-wife Ellen has plenty of motives for murder, as does Bunnyβs harassed maid Lupe. Or was it Bunnyβs seething stepdaughter who sent her to that Great Shopping Mall in the Sky?
Jaine is running out of time. Jobless, Lance is losing his mind and taking it out on Jaineβs apartment, wardrobe, and indignant cat Prozac. And before Jaine can say 9021Oh-no someone else is murdered. Between a house guest that wonβt leave, a suitor-turned-stalker, and killer on the loose, Jaineβs jackpot may turn out to be foolβs gold.
