The hit-and-run death of a schoolmate rocks Carol Andrews' world. The tragic accident, still unsolved, soon becomes a rallying cry for pedestrian safety in an upcoming town council election. Ignoring the advice of her husband, who points out that she knows nothing about the political arena, Carol eagerly signs on to manage the election campaign of a new-to-politics female candidate. But when the always-nosy Carol goes beyond her job description and starts asking too many questions, she discovers that politics can be a murky world of hidden secrets, greed, and murder.
"Carol Andrews is one retiree who is not content to bake cookies and babysit her grandchild. Having solved nine Baby Boomer Mysteries with wit and homely wisdom, it would be a serious mistake to underestimate her sleuthing skills. I'm eagerly awaiting her next adventure, and I'm sure other mystery loves are, too."-Leslie Meier, author, the Lucy Stone Mysteries
