Leaving her posh Atlanta lifestyle behind, Tally Sheppard has, literally, arrived in the basement on tiny Palmetto Island, South Carolina. As she writes obituaries for the local newspaper (yes, there's still a print version), her promising career as an investigative journalist has nowhere to go but up. Life on the island is mundane, lacks a decent coffee shop, and opportunities for retail therapy are nonexistent - if she could afford new clothes and shoes. (Which she can't.) Plus, with a broken engagement on her romance resume, her skills at relationships aren't faring any better.
Then she notices three employees who work for local manufacturer Candy Apple Cosmetics have died in less than a month. Nobody, including the police, seems concerned about the rash of "accidents." (Though the lieutenant she reports her suspicions to is hotter than the island summer sand.) But as Tally digs deeper, and she winds up on a killer's hit list, she realizes she'll get her big break in the news biz... or wind up as a feature in her own column.
**If you enjoy romantic fantasies, look for Wendy Etherington's witchy adventure - SPARKED.**
