Two-point-five million dollars’ worth of solid gold soap? Life in Leavensport, Ohio, had been boring for Jolie Tucker growing up. Now, moving into her thirties, life had changed to near-constant pandemonium. Twelve cats, a husband, eight-month-old twin girls, co-owning a restaurant and part-time PI firm, not to mention her helicopter mom, grandma, and aunt—Jolie’s life left a lot to be desired. A vacation could not come soon enough! Jolie and her best friend, Ava Martinez, have been planning a staycation since Halloween, when their babies were born on the same day. They’ve planned out who in their families will watch their kids while they lie by the Leavensport pool, drinking in plenty of sun and hopefully some fun fruity beverages. But life has a way of pulling them back into the daily chaos. When Devonte, the manager of Leavensport’s local shelter for unhoused people, is found dead, face down in Jolie’s famous Cast Iron Chicken Piccata, Ava and Jolie fear that their friend Lia may also be in danger. Lia has been hiding in plain sight from her ex, Jackson Nestle, an unscrupulous local businessman Jolie and Ava suspect is connected to many criminal activities in their village. Things get extra dicey when one of Nestle’s henchmen goes missing along with two-point-five million dollars’ worth of gold bars. The criminals of Leavensport are hot under the collar after one hundred grams of gold wrapped in hotel soap packaging that was supposed to have been smuggled through the Villy Crisis Center instead disappears into thin air. Now, the women have their hands full trying to figure out a murder, find a missing man, and get their hands on the gold before Nestle so they can finally put him behind bars for good! Will this turn out to be the staycation from Hades? Welcome to Leavensport, Ohio, where DEATH takes a DELICIOUS turn!
