Tori Miracle, reporter and former New Yorker, hasn't exactly made a great impression in Lickin Creek. She's been blamed for the historical society fire, the death of the town's only doctor, the death of a senator, and the absence of the town's former police chief, Garnet, among other things.
Now that her editor is back on the job, Tori is reduced to part-time reporter. When Alice-Ann, her best friend, asks her to write the copy for the annual Lickin Creek house tour, Tori reluctantly agrees. But in the process of examining one of the houses, Tori and Alice-Ann stumble upon a skeleton. To save the house tour, Alice-Ann talks Tori into keeping the skeleton a secret until the tour is over. But the skeleton disappears and Tori becomes the victim of a series of seemingly unrelated mishaps. Is she paranoid, as Alice-Ann suggests, or is there a connection with the skeleton? But there is little time to investigate--an escaped convict may be heading to Lickin Creek to get even with his wife, Tori is being stalked by an unknown person, and she hasn't heard from Garnet since January.
You will like Tori's satirical reactions to the townspeople as she continues to find her niche in Lickin Creek. And after reading this book, you can't help but wonder what will happen next
