Eggs in a Casket (A Cackleberry Club Mystery)

Kirkus Reviews2014-01-07
The murder of a man who was nobody's friend brings the Cackleberry Club's middle-aged amateur investigators back into investigation mode. Though he was not particularly interesting during his life, prison warden Lester Drummond's death is a subject of fascination for the small town of Kindred. Not least of the interested parties is the Cackleberry Club, the three 40-something owners of the best breakfast place in town. It's not as if Suzanne, Toni or Petra know much about the man, though Suzanne and Toni are the ones to stumble on his body. The issue is really the evidence that their friend Missy is somehow wrapped up in Lester's murder, down to the Taser gun found in her bedroom. Though some thought that the affection between the two was mutual, the truth is that Lester's behavior toward Missy was borderline stalking.
