Description
In a little town like Cutler, Colorado, there's always time to stop and chat with a neighbor...to enjoy a glass of lemonade on the front porch...or to watch the sunset over Spirit Lake.
But that doesn't mean there's no such thing as murder...
Fred Vickery's getting to that age. Doc Huggins says he's supposed to avoid cholesterol, salt, and excitement. He's doing his best to cooperate -- if only to placate his overly concerned daughter. But cutting down on salt is easier than avoiding excitement -- especially when Fred finds a dead body on his morning walk. The victim was a newcomer (she'd only been in town ten years), but Fred's been here forever. He knows everyone -- and knows just what questions to ask. And he intends to find the culprit -- doctor's orders be damned...
