A Bad Day for Pretty

Stella Hardesty, avenger of wronged women, is getting cozy with Sheriff 'Goat' Jones when the tornado that is blazing a path of destruction through town blows his scheming ex-wife, Brandy, through the front door. Adding to the chaos, the tornado destroys the snack shack at the demolition derby track, pulling up the concrete and unearthing a woman's body. The main suspect for the dumping is Neb Donovan; he laid the foundations, and there's some pretty hard evidence pointing to him. Years ago, Neb's wife asked Stella for help getting him off oxycontin. Stella doesn't believe the gentle man could kill any woman, and she promises his frantic wife she'll look into it. Chrissy Shaw, now fully employed at Stella's sewing shop, helps with snooping around as Stella must negotiate the unpredictable Brandy and the alluring Sheriff. This is the thrilling sequel to Sophie's debut, the IMBA and San Francisco Chronicle bestseller A Bad Day for Sorry .
