  Life coach Cat Cooper and her best friend Gilley can't wait to take a long vacation from low-key East Hampton. There's just one more item left on their planning checklist: stopping a killer . . . 
   
   
   
  With Gilley heartbroken over the collapse of his marriage, Cat has the perfect remedy—a three-week-long getaway to Italy. But before the duo can pack their bags and sip prosecco on the sunny riviera, they first must help a troubled client carve out a fresh start of her own. Wealthy Scarlet Rubi desperately seeks a greater purpose and immediate distance from her toxic descendants. The urgency of the situation isn't quite so clear until Scarlet takes healthy steps towards progress, only to turn up dead . . . 
   
   
    
  The matriarch of a wealthy family has been murdered in her home after finding a new lease on life. Cat's suspicions deepen when she discovers Scarlet was set on cutting off her children and grandchildren, each one more money-hungry and dependent on financial support than the last. As Cat and Gilley investigate a slew of sketchy alibis and concrete motives from the corrupt Rubi clan while preparing to leave the East End for Europe, they soon realize the question isn't who had a deadly vendetta against Scarlet—it's who didn’t?

  "She talks so much, she should have two sets of teeth." 
   
   
   
  I haven't seen Stanley Shelton since the flamingo keychain with the campervan key dangled from his fingertips as he ripped the Maserati keys out of my grip after my ex-now-dead husband left me broke and penniless, until now. 
   
   
   
  Stanley claims the Diamond Swamp Mob is after him and he needs my help. Something about my past, but I didn't take him too seriously until someone was murdered in Stanley's rented room at the Milkery. The person just so happened to have a tattoo I've seen before. 
   
   
   
  One problem, the tattoo is a brand from a mob in New York City. 
   
   
   
  Sheriff Hank Sharp has hauled Stanley down to the Normal sheriff's department for the murder, leaving it up to me and the Laundry Club Ladies to clear Stanley's name. Looks like I'm driving my campervan back to New York City and make it a girls trip. 
   
   
   
  I sure hope I can get to the mob boss before he sends anyone else to Happy Trails Campground to finish the job and get revenge on who actually killed the mobster. 
   
   
   
  Welcome to Normal, Kentucky, where nothing is normal!
