In spite of her dislike of the water, Angie Deacon buys her husband a day of fishing on Lake Winnipesaukee for his fiftieth birthday. What better gift for a guy stuck in the office all the time? 


That’s what she thinks right up until the owner of the tour is murdered. Who besides Nolan Little’s verbally abused wife has reason to murder him—they’re supposedly all strangers. 


As an ER nurse, Angie has dedicated herself to helping people, so when Val begs her to help find Nolan’s murderer saying yes seems only natural—until she uncovers Val’s secret.

Angie Deacon has a new career,

co-owner of Alton Bay New Hampshire’s community theater, Prince & Pauper. Her divorce is almost final and, even though her too-clingy mother has moved in, life is good once again. 


Angie’s new love interest, Detective Colby Jarvis lost a bet with his fellow officers ​: he has  to try out for a part in Angie’s show Checkmate: Murder. ​He is awarded the part of a burglar.  Unfortunately, during the very first performance, Jarvis shoots the star with his personal handgun that’s somehow been switched with the theater’s prop gun. 


Though on suspension, he is heavy with need to find out who switched guns. Why would anyone use him to kill the leading man who, by day, is the  unassuming owner of the local nursery. Add that to the fact that his long-thought-dead father is back, Jarvis has had his last good night’s  sleep for a while.

Proudly she narrows the group of leading-man applicants to  pharmaceuticals salesman Stone Powers. His six-pack abs and charisma have the female cast swooning. Stone accepts the attention with cool   professionalism, even as wives begin popping up like dandelions in a  field. 
Stone arrives drunk at the theater two days in a row, and ​Angie isn’t surprised—keeping three wives  from learning of each other ​could drive anyone to drink. When the local convenience store phones in a domestic dispute, the last thing Detective Colby Jarvis expects is to find Stone dead. ​Jarvis is suddenly overwhelmed with suspects of the female persuasion.
