✦ Synopsis

Welcome to The Mad Egg Diner Where the Eggs are Over Easy and the Murder is Hard Boiled
Melody decides to take time away from the diner and hang with daughter Tricia for a week. She hopes for tall tales and Tanqueray gin, but halfway through the first cocktail, murder crashes the party.

This time it’s Lara Lynch, personal bodyguard to none other than devil-may-care lawyer Sly Carrera. She’s been flattened by a car and it’s no accident.

Since cowboy cop Gabe is still sore at Melody for risking life and limb on his watch, he cuts her out of the case. But our heroine’s undeterred.

When the going gets tough, the tough go their own way.

In true Melody style, she cooks up a sizzling batch of suspects that includes a miffed martial artist and a green-eyed girlfriend. But when both friends and family get hauled in for questioning, Melody and Gabe face off in the fiercest fight of their friendship yet.

Then sweet old Gideon, Melody’s buddy and best customer, announces he’s buying the abandoned Irish pub, a suspicious move for a man with no money. To everyone’s dismay, he lands on the suspect list too, leaving locals to wonder.

Is there’s anyone in town who didn’t do it?

And the looming question underneath it all boils up again. There’s a crime ring in Cascade, Colorado that’s killing people.

Who’s behind it?

And can the feuding detectives dismantle it before it destroys them?
