"The third book in a cute cozy series (Fit To Be Dead; Dang Near Dead) features an appealing heroine with a self-deprecating wit and a determination to never grow old." - Library Journal (on Smart But Dead)
Advice columnist Aggie Mundeen and SAPD Detective Sam Vanderhoven plan their first rendezvous at a San Antonio River Walk hotel during Fiesta Week--sumptuous sights, sounds and festivities in the middle of America's Venice, a vacation from crime and a reset for their tumultuous relationship.
But murder descends on Casa Prima Hotel. Disturbing revelations surface about the Fabulous Femmes, Aggie's new friends holding a convention. Evil emerges at parties in La Villita. Calamity plagues Aggie's debut dance performance at Arneson River Theater, the celebration skewed by carousing, crazies and corpses. Even in idyllic River City, crime complicates relationships.
