Jolene Asdale is just one step away—one sale, in fact—from becoming a successful New York businesswoman. But her dream stalls when a dead body tumbles out of the shiny Ferrari in her exotic car showroom. The victim is Tim Lapham, head of the Finger Lakes zoning board. They'd been dating—and publicly arguing over relocating her business—just months before.
The crime brings Jolene face-to-face with Deputy Ray Parker, her almost-ex-husband, whose suspicions are raised when wads of cash and a knife sheath turn up in her home. Many consider Jolene's downtown showroom a major eyesore. Could a spite-driven local be trying to frame her? Facing bankruptcy, a murder conviction, and divorce from the man she still loves, Jolene is on her own in solving the case and saving herself from a loveless life behind bars.
