The first in a brand-new cozy series from Diane Kelly set in Nashvilleโwhere the real estate market is to die for.
WILL THIS KILLER DEAL LEAD TO A DEAD END? Meet Whitney Whitaker. A hopeless romantic when it comes to real estate, she knows what it takes to findโand flipโthe home of oneโs dreams. A fixer-upper is like catnip to Whitney: she canโt resist the challenge of turning an eyesore into a priceless work of art. So when one of her clients decides to liquidate a crumbling property, Whitney seizes the opportunity to purchase it for a song. But soon a curious incident of the cat in the night-time leads to a change in tune. . .
Sawdust is the name of Whitneyโs catโof course. Whitneyโs passion for gut-renovation may be a mystery to him but one thing Sawdust knows for sure is this: Dead bodies donโt belong in flower beds. So why is there one in this new, albeit old, house? Now itโs up to Whitney, along with the help of hot-and-cold Nashville Police Detective Collin Flynn, to find the truth about what happened before the mortgage property forecloses and Whitney loses her investment. . .and maybe her own life.
