Now, it's his turn- when Cloverton turns up dead, he's arrested. With his predilection for polyester, Pitt has been wanted by the fashion police for years, but Nana Jo knows her former elementary school math student would never commit murder-it doesn't add up. Somebody's framed the flatfoot to take a fall, and Sam and Nana Jo must step in to restore the reputation and good name of Detective Pitt.Praise for THE PLOT IS MURDER"A promising debut with a satisfying conclusion." -Publishers Weekly"Cozy mystery readers and historical novel aficionados will adore this warm-hearted, cleverly plotted new series." -Kings River LifeIn the seventh Mystery Bookshop novel from Agatha Award-finalist V.M.
