Voluptuous P.I. Savannah Reid is about to find out as she
delves into the disappearance of a celebrity hanger - on
that soon leads to something more sinister. As Halloween
draws near, Savannah will have to learn a killer's deadly
'tricks' before someone else is 'treated' to murder...
Halloween in Southern California just doesn't have the
frosty bite Savannah's used to, although her latest job
promises chills aplenty. The Skeleton Key Three, a
celebutante clique so named by the media because of their
super-skinny figures and fat trust funds, are in the
spotlight again - but this time, it's for something more
than partying.
It seems the one member of the Three who was neither wealthy
nor particularly svelte hasn't been heard from in days.
The missing girl's name is Daisy O'Neil, and by all
accounts, she had little in common with her so-called
friends Tiffy, Kiki, and Bunny. Chubby, smart, and
less-than-privileged, Daisy's role in the Three seems to
have been primarily to be the victim of their vicious jibes
and pranks. When Savannah learns that Tiffy's acting
aspirations were threatened by Daisy's genuine talent, the
poor little rich girl begins to look big-time guilty.
But just when Savannah thinks she has it all figured out -
except where the body is stashed - the vibe surrounding the
Skeleton Key Three changes from vacuous and suspicious to
downright murderous. As preparations are being made for a
monster Halloween party, to be held on the Dante compound,
the patriarch himself is spotted dressed as Dracula, laid
out in his coffin, complete with a real stake through his
no-longer-beating heart. Now, with the party seriously
pooped and the tabloids on a tear, Savannah will have to put
her Halloween candy on the shelf until she's deserving of a
reward. And that means finding a killer - fast - before more
Hollywood money becomes buried treasure...
