Read a sample Read a sample

When the bodies of writer Iris Morland and a former lover are discovered in full wedding regalia atop a giant wedding cake parade float, the little resort town of Honeymoon Falls is left reeling. Not only is its reputation as the Romance Capital of the World at risk, its very survival is threatened. Murder, it seems, has a chilling effect on those considering venues for potential nuptials. Finding the killer is going to be difficult; it seems Iris enjoyed betrayal. Her potential killers include her husband, Kenneth, whose faltering grip on a mechanical mouse plunged him into a hideously embarrassing scene with Iris and her latest lover, television host Arnold Reifel. Arnold was finding the affair burdensome, and his wife, Marjorie, was seething because Iris, not content with appropriating her husband, had turned Marjorie's interior decoration schemes into a very public humiliation. Then there's haughty French film auteur Pierre Blondin, in town filming his adaptation of Iris's novel. Did Iris trigger his murderous wrath by opposing a nude scene featuring ninety-five-year-old actress Hermione Hopkins? Captain Will Halsey, head of Honeymoon Falls' three-person policeforce, struggles to find the killer while coping with small-town politics, feuding among his subordinates, and the ferocious attentions of the media.
