Blues-singer Maxx Maxwell is smart, talented, and gorgeousβat least since she had her nose fixed, went blonde, and bought a push-up bra. So what if sheβs living in a scruffy apartment in Hackensack, New Jersey, and the waitress job sheβs taken to make ends meet is driving her crazy? Her band, Maxximum Blues, is really taking off, thanks to the talents of guitarist Jimmy Nashville, a heartbreakingly handsome guy whose life is complicated by an assortment of girlfriends.
But then Jimmy plunges to his death from the window of his ninth-floor apartment. His death intensifies tensions already simmering in the band, and Maxx fears her dream of making it as a singer might just as well be dead too. Besides, she has to admit that, though she was trying to resist his charm, she was as smitten with Jimmy as were the other women in his life.
When Jimmyβs death is ruled suicide, Maxx resolves to go sleuthing on her own.
