Category: Detective and mystery stories

Ellie Bernstein is still a fan of the TV series M*A*S*H. So are a lot of other people in Colorado Springs. In fact, years ago at a M*A*S*H bash to watch the show's finale, everyone came as their favorite character. Now, after having lost fifty-five pounds, Ellie sure looks a lot more like Hot Lips. But that claim to fame might be dangerous. There's a killer on the loose, and the show's look-alikes are being murdered. What twisted motive lies behind the killings? Ellie's dying to see the ending of this serial killer's saga... "Bernstein is a wonderful heroine...now that she's gotten rid of her philandering husband and kept off those extra 55 pounds, she can revel in her job, her earthy affair with Lt. Peter Miller, and her search for the killer." --Kirkus Reviews
