High school English teacher Beatrix (Bea) Cortland started the 1989-90 school year without her usual enthusiasm. Her best friend, Bronwyn MacIntosh Gordon, had moved to Tennessee with her musician husband, Ti, and refocused herself on her painting. She had a part-time job in an art gallery and hoped to mount her own show soon. Bea had divorced her husband, Norm, and rescued a miniature schnauzer named Sherlock. Her life with her boys, Cameron and Conner, while busy, didn't fulfill her. At Bronwyn's suggestion, Bea registered to attend the English Educators Conference, conveniently located in her state's capital city. The moment she arrived at the convention center, Bea found a body in her hotel room.
