Mystery Woman Sleuth
The dazzling Jazz Ball for the prestigious Woodburn School
of Music promises to be event planner Madeline Bean's
greatest triumph to date - both professionally and
personally. All the rich and mighty of L.A. society's fund-
raising crowd seem to be seriously enjoying the
festivities, not to mention the black-and-white-themed
menu Mad and company have whipped up in their kitchen. And
there may even be a replacement here for her ex-beau LAPD
Detective Chuck Honnett - who turned out to be not as
completely divorced as he'd implied - although charming
trust-fund hunk Dexter Delano Wyatt's past may be a bit
too shady for Ms. Bean's good.
Of course, then everything goes straight to hell. Having
to contend with a heap of celebrity trash, a ranting vocal
coach, his rabid bitch of a girlfriend, and dueling
preteen music prodigies is bad enough. But when the
furious bidding war for the prize item to be auctioned
off - a one-of-a-kind, sterling silver Selmer Mark VI
tenor saxophone - almost results in bloodshed, and the
perfect sax subsequently vanishes, Madeline can't help but
wonder what else could possibly go wrong. Well...she could arrive home to discover a dead body in
her bedroom. Detective Honnett could start making
insistent "take me back" noises. The man Mad is
considering as a candidate to fill the void in her sex
life could have been involved in a multimillion-dollar art
theft and insurance fraud and maybe much worse. And then
there's the red-haired stranger who seems to be stalking
her.
