Description: When seventy-three year old, Martha Denton drops dead into her peach cobbler at the St. Claire Inn, no one is surprised. After all, Martha had a heart condition. But when her death is ruled a murder, the inn's owner, Julia Applegate, becomes the prime suspect. Julia recruits her "sixty-something" group of friends to launch their own investigation. Together with the inn's resident ghosts, including Julia's recently deceased mother who has learned to use a cell phone, they go after the truth. Add to that a talking parrot who likes to quote old movies, a Harlequin Great Dane, two miniature Dachshunds, a very handsome detective (or two), and get ready for a romp down mystery lane!
