Publisher Description

With major renovations going on at Seattle's favorite B&B, Mary Daheim moves Judith, Renie and the rest of the unforgettable clan to temporary lodgings at a casino resort. But when a magic show results in murder, Judith and Joe are on the job.

Mystery maven Mary Daheim serves up murder and mayhem in this tale of a vacation gone awry at the Stillasnowamish Resort Casino. After being forced out of the B&B by post-fire renovations, Judith and Renie pack up the family and settle in for the duration.

As if bickering from the two mothers wasn't enough hassle, the group discovers Salome, the resort magician's beautiful assistant they'd seen perform only hours earlier, dead from multiple stab wounds. While Judith can't help but snoop around, her husband Joe is officially recruited to investigate by the casino manager.

The chase is on as suspect after suspect emerges, leaving Judith and Joe to answer the crucial, yet baffling question: who's the real casino killer?
