victoriangal avatar reviewed on


From the flyleaf: Lilly Bennett is the gun-toting, tart tongued,smart and sassy owner of the Bennett Security International of Roundup, Wyoming.

The grand old town of Roundup is going to hell in a handbasket, according to Lilly Bennett's mother, because two ladies intend to wear trousers to the symphony gala. No matter, the holiday season is in high gear, and Lilly thinks the glitzy Children's Hospital Christmas fundraiser is going to be a ball. Instead it becomes a funeral.

Dead is Baroness Rita von Singen. Overdressed and grossly overweight, the baroness used to be plain old Rita Haye before here daddy bought her a german aristocrat husband named Heinrich. Rita and her husband have hosted the social event of the season. Now Lilly is determined to discover who put the bullet in Rita's pudgy forehead.
