Nina Simon: Mother-Daughter Murder Night

The Maid meets The Last Thing He Told Me in this fun, fresh, and twisty debut whodunnit about a grandmother-mother-daughter trio who come together as amateur sleuths to solve a murder in their coastal California town. High-powered businesswoman Lana Rubicon finds herself trapped 300 miles north of the city, convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughters Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack after she is diagnosed with cancer. But when Jack happens upon a dead body while kayaking near their bungalow, she quickly becomes a suspect in the homicide investigation. The Rubicon women are thrown into chaos. Beth thinks Lana should focus on recovery, but Lana has a better idea. She’ll pull on her wig, find the true murderer, protect her family, and prove she still has power. With Jack and Beth’s help, Lana uncovers a web of lies, family vendettas, and land disputes. As their amateur’s scooping advances into ever-more dangerous territory, the headstrong Rubicon women must learn to do the one thing they’ve always resisted: depend on each other.
