A Novella by Tonya Kappes
SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY WITH A SMIDGEN OF HOMICIDE
USA Today Bestselling author Tonya Kappes brings you southern and quirky characters in her mystery series. Her stories are charged with humor, friendship, family and life in small southern towns.
Welcome to Normal, Kentucky, the town where normal is a foreign concept and quirky charm reigns supreme. Get ready for a wild ride in the spirit of Schitt's Creek!
Meet Mae West, the newest addition to the RV lifestyle and proud owner of Happy Trails Campground, nestled in the heart of Daniel Boone National Park. As the late summer rolls in, families flock to this haven for hiking, swimming, fishing, and all things outdoorsy.
But life in Normal takes an unexpected turn when Betts Hager, a local business tycoon, finds herself drowning in work and desperate for help with her cleaning business. Enter Mae, ever-ready to lend a helping hand and eager to make some extra cash. Her first client? None other than the glamorous heiress Tammy Jo Bentley and her magnificent mansion.
Mae takes her cleaning duties seriously, especially with the prestigious Kentucky Kennel Association's annual meeting set to take place at Tammy Jo's residence. Fifi, Tammy Jo's prized and insured poodle, will be the star attraction, with potential suitors vying for the chance to sire Fifi's future offspring.
But just before the big event, tragedy strikes. Camille Braun, Fifi's devoted nanny, is found brutally murdered. It's a shocking blow, as everyone knows Camille would do anything for Fifi - even give her life. And now, it seems she did.
While Mae initially tries to stay out of the chaos, Tammy Jo pleads for her help. After all, Mae has a knack for uncovering the truth, as evidenced by her previous sleuthing endeavors in Normal. Not to mention, it's not great for business or the town's revitalized economy when a killer is on the loose.
With her newfound love for the quirky RV community and a place she can finally call home, Mae is determined to protect it at all costs. Armed with her heart and her amateur detective skills, she dives headfirst into the investigation, determined to unmask the real killer and bring justice to Normal.
Join us as Mae West and her side sleuths The Laundry Club Ladies as Mae takes on her biggest challenge yet, proving that even in a town where normal is abnormal, she's the unlikely hero who won't let anyone ruin the quirky paradise she's come to love. Get ready for a delightful blend of humor, heart, and sleuthing that will keep you glued to your seat, Schitt's Creek style!
