Book excerpt: Cami Petersen grew up in a less than desirable neighborhood in Detroit. She started dancing in a strip club when she was just 16 so that she could pay her way through culinary school and to move her little sister, mother and herself into a better life style. She went on to become a very successful caterer in Mystic Pond - in fact she made her first million dollars by the time she was thirty years old, and married a rock star type D.J. She was found murdered last year the day before Thanksgiving. The book is written through the eyes of the detective, Mary Bartlett who was not only her friend, but also the one who found her. The murder is solved using the usual fingerprints, DNA and such, but also from reading a few volumes of Cami's thirty years of diaries - and well, evidence. Oh, and we can't forget the little "thing" that is starting to brew between the detective and the F.B.I. guy? Well, let's just say, "stay tuned." It is written short and to the point making it an easy three to four hour read.
