What more could a self-taught home-improvement maven and occasional house-flipper ask for? Ideally, the property of Whitney's dreams would <i>not</i> have come with a dead body blocking the entrance to the foyer. But Whitney, always quick to take heavy-duty matters into her own hands, also happens to be a skilled amateur sleuth. So that helps. <p/><b>AND SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET.</b> <p/>Who is this older woman--and how did her corpse end up at the bottom of the staircase of this locked, unoccupied house? That is what Whitney, along with the support of her wood-working cousin Buck, Detective Collin Flynn, and, of course, feline partner-in-crime Sawdust, intends to find out. Her friendly-neighbor investigation takes a sharp turn, however, when Whitney discovers that the house's former owner was a gourmet baker whose secret recipe for peach pie was to die for--perhaps literally. Now it's up to Whitney to learn the truth about what happened before she loses this killer real-estate deal . . . and the killer comes knocking at her door. <p/><b>Adorable...Whitney and Sawdust are a welcome addition to your home and bookshelf.--Kellye Garrett, Anthony, Agatha, and Lefty Award--winning author of the Hollywood Homicide series </b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>This is a pleasant and comfy read, particularly for dedicated HGTV fans familiar with the concept of flipping houses.-Mystery Scene Magazine <p/><i>Dead in the Doorway </i>is one smorgasbord of suspense, clever cast, lighthearted humor, gossipy neighbors, with an intriguing ending.
