That is, until her rhinestone-studded grandfather, Pop, needs help setting up his Elvis act. Minutes from climbing into the tank, Rebecca has to find a replacement, and roller derby girl Sherlene-n-Mean is delighted to fit the bill---until she's dunked, electrocuted, and killed. It's obvious that this was no accident. Someone rigged the tank, but who was the intended target? Sherlene-n-Mean or Rebecca? <p/>With a list of suspects in hand and Pop cheering her on, Rebecca starts asking questions. Who disliked Sherlene-n-Mean enough to kill her? Could a father really be capable of murdering his own daughter for money? Why has the bowling alley owner suddenly decided to call a truce and offer Rebecca his assistance? Who <i>was </i>Sherlene-n-Mean? Did her mysterious past catch up with her and get her killed or was she a victim of circumstance? Aided by a trio of self-appointed bodyguard derby girls and caught between Deputy Sean and her sometimes-boyfriend Lionel, Rebecca digs for answers, dodges bullets, and races to find a killer before the killer strikes again. <p/>Joelle Charbonneau's third novel is a gem in a charming and hilarious series.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Rebecca's amusing third continues to flesh out its continuing characters while providing an eccentric bunch of murder suspects." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"Charbonneau's fun third mystery featuring roller rink owner Rebecca Robbins...[with] genuine warmth between the characters, the fierce loyalty of the roller derby team, and the distinct thawing of Rebecca's lawman nemesis, Sean Holmes." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Joelle Charbonneau</b> has worked as a professional singer and actress and currently is a private voice instructor.
