"[A] fast-paced mystery . . . [a] comic ongoing series. Fans of Tamar Myers and Donna Andrews will appreciate the sequel to Here Comes the Bribe." —Library Journal
In this charming madcap entry in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling Bed-and-Breakfast series, innkeeper and amateur sleuth Judith McMonigle Flynn's plans for a relaxing vacation go awry when she realizes her fellow guests have a different kind of getaway planned.
Vacations can be murder. No one knows that better than Judith McMonigle Flynn, owner of Seattle's popular Hillside Manor B&B. After a busy summer, she desperately needs some R&R. Leave it to her thoughtful husband, Joe, to surprise her with a trip to the Canadian Rockies. Thrilled to be getting away, Judith's overjoyed when Cousin Renie and Bill agree to join them. Though the husbands have made the arrangements, how bad can a short time away in the beautiful mountains be? Judith and Renie are about to find out!
While the accommodations certainly leave something to be desired, the other guests are the real prize. They've gathered on the mountainside to give a relative a proper and permanent send-off—a nice gesture, until Judith realizes that paying their respects might be a little premature . . . without some very sinister assistance. Now, it's up to her and Renie to save a would-be corpse from an early date with the undertaker.

      Judith McMonigle Flynn is ready for a vacation away from her popular bed-and-breakfast. But she and cousin Renie never should have let their husbands plan the trip to Banff in the Canadian Rockies. While she and Renie imagined a luxurious stay, they end up in a cheap motel and the men go off on an extended fishing trip. What does Judith do to entertain herself? Of course, she checks out an unusual gathering where the Stokes family from Nebraska has a bier ready to send down the river when the family elder, Codger, dies. According to the family, Codger is ready to go anytime. But when a body is found with knife wounds, it disappears before the Mounties can investigate. Unfortunately for Sergeant Brewster, RCMP, Judith is already on the case, and she's been labeled a FASTO, a female amateur sleuth tracking offenders. The fast-paced mystery supplies humorous dialog between Renie and Judith, and multiple opportunities for disappearances of corpses and suspects. VERDICT "What's a vacation for if we can't find a corpse" sums up Judith's life and the comic ongoing series. Fans of Tamar Myers and Donna Andrews will appreciate the sequel to Here Comes the Bribe.
