By (author): Karen MacInerney
In the third novel in Karen MacInerneys madcap series, murder proves a welcome distraction to the zany adventures and quirky characters in PI Margie Petersons life.
Private investigator/single mom Margie Peterson barely has time for breakfast, let alone to hit the gym. But when Austin Heights PTA president Pansy Parker hires her to find out whos been embezzling PTA funds, thats exactly where Margie ends upfinding Pansy dangling upside down from a Nautilus machine. But the PTA presidents not alone: the dead body of a personal trainer is there, too. And now shes facing murder charges.
To find out what really happened, Margie goes undercover as a Brazilian body waxer and an energy drink bottler. What she discovers stinks worse than a pair of sweaty gym socks.
But thats not all. Margies husband is living with his Madonna-impersonating boyfriend; her boss keeps setting her up on disastrous dates, including one with a vengeful sock puppet named Marshmallow; her daughters fry phone is being held hostage; and her pet piglet, Twinkles, ran off after a sausage-smuggling streaker.
Can Margie pull out the big guns to find the real killer, save the fry phone, and recover Twinklesbefore its too late?
