Irene Sumner lives in a small town on the Treasure Coast of Florida. After years of teaching school she takes an early retirement, sells her house and moves into a retirement community.

Her plans include traveling, spending time with her boyfriend, and enjoying the quiet life in her apartment at Peaceful Lakes, until an overheard conversation inadvertently involves her in a complicated plot which includes mysterious deaths.

As the ex-wife of the chief of police and mother-in-law of the sheriff she has insight and first hand knowledge of what goes on in the small town of Littleton Beach. What Irene hopes to be a vacation to the mountains becomes complicated by a visit from her ex-husband. Her relationship with her boyfriend, Roger, is threatened by jealousy and physical distance.

Banter, teasing, and sexual tension keep the reader entertained as Irene faces each obstacle and danger, with a sarcastic sense of humor, a zest for life, and determination.
