Publisher's summary

Callahan Garrity is the owner of House Mouse, a cleaning service that tidies up after Atlanta's elite. She's also a former cop and a part-time sleuth. She and her coterie of devoted helpers can ransack a house for clues faster than it takes a fingerprint to set.

Keeping Rita Fontaine, a washed-up 1960s teenage rock star, out of jail is a tough job. It's nothing less than murder when Stu Hightower, the vain, temperamental president of a thriving Atlanta recording company, is found murdered in the den of his posh home. His only companions are the slug in his heart and Rita, dead drunk and looking guilty. Callahan believes in Rita's innocence, but discovering who killed Hightower could send her floating down a river of lost dreams without a paddle.

Good read...but...

Great plot! :-) Good development of characters. Probably the best in the series for me thus far. BUT a bit too much cursing for my taste... too many F bombs. :-(
....would have given it an overall 5 stars had if not been for that.

No Happily Ever After Over Here!

Don’t waste your money or credit on this one! First off I love Mary Kay Andrews. This one just isn’t it for me considering I’ve read at least 10 of her books so far. The narrator is terrible I can’t really understand her. She sounds like 7 year old reading their report to the class. I’ve decided I’m going to stop listening and maybe if I buy the book and read it I’ll actually like the story.
