Myrtle Clover, a retired school-teacher, can't bear one more beach read, so she  plots a coup to transform the Bradley book club into something more literary. Her schemes come to naught when her evil next-door-neighbor, Erma, suggests a supper club instead.Apparently, Myrtles neighbors are a bunch of foodies, because the first progressive supper has been planned before she can say Charles Dickens. Things turn an even darker shade when one of the hostesses turns up ... dead. But for Myrtle, a natural-born snoop, things are just becoming interesting. And when a feral cat claims her yard, thank goodness for all the hunting lessons it imparts.The story shines as it captures the eccentricities and charm of Myrtle's annoying and perhaps deadly neighbors.
