"Miranda Abbott will once again be a star. After a very long dry spell that followed her network hit series Pastor Fran Investigates, Hollywood has come calling and wants Miranda back. This time she will be the female lead in an oddly expensive movie-of-the-week being filmed in Happy Rock. Miranda signs on the dotted line, but her trusty assistant, Andrew, a whiz with apps and clouds, thinks it all seems a bit fishy. Things get go from bad to worse when Miranda's co-star makes a grand entrance by crashing through the atrium window at the Duchess Hotel and being very much dead. The great citizens of Happy Rock--including police chief Ned Buckley, grumpy bookstore owner and soon-to-be ex-husband Edgar Abbott, Bea of Bea's B&B and the malodorous Owen McCune--return to help solve the case in this second Miranda Abbott mystery."--Provided by publisher.
