Murder at Cape Foulweather — Martha Miller

The five Sun City Sluts -- Roz Powell, Babs Booty, Ruby Jean Culligan, Paige Woods-Heyward and Jamie Miracle -- forty-ish, fast, and full of hell, attend a writing workshop in a remote lodge on the Oregon coast, each hiding a secret she's afraid to spill. The first night a destructive storm hits, all power is lost, and one of their classmates, Orchid L'Toile, meets a fate they consider worse than death: bloody murder without adequate makeup while naked in the bathtub. They must find the killer or become victims themselves. Their sleuthing takes a few wrong turns. Roz falls in love and Ruby Jean fallsâ€"â€"off a cliff. All the Sun City Sluts reveal their secrets and Paige, with a plan, patiently knits. And knits. And knits. But the Sun City Sluts solve the murder while living up to their creed: Men come and go, but girlfriends are forever.
