Vintage Hess in top form, gloriously funny and brilliantly plotted. Not bad for a jacket blurb.

Clair Malloy, Farberville's plucky amateur sleuth, feels the pull of summer duldrums until a predicament sends her to a posh lakefront community. Her best friend Luanne is having an affair with Dick Cissel, a dentist who just may have murdered his two previous wives. While the police are determined to prove Dick guilty of double homocide, Luannne wants Claire to confirm him no Bluebeard and, therefore, prime marriage material. But if Dick didn't murder his wives, who did?
