Young Woman's Body Discovered in Library Gazebo, Lou Prophet Accused
-1926, Pasadena, California-
When Daisy's old nemesis, Stacy Kincaid, is found murdered in the Pasadena Public Library's gazebo, suspicion is cast upon the one-legged Lou Prophet-former bounty hunter, current curmudgeon, and reluctant Pasadena citizen.
Daisy, who has had remarkable success in the kitchen considering her loathing of cookery, begins to have problems. Things burn in seconds, pots run dry, and she fears losing her mind, perhaps due to the early stages of her pregnancy. Odd things happen in the library, too, which puzzle and distress Daisy's friend, librarian Regina Browning.
But the problems mount when the real murderer steals a car, resulting in another death and the demise of a Hispano-Suiza.
