Final rest

Lorretta Millett is a woman of strong habits. One of those habits is cinnamon-sugar toast for breakfast every morning. Her predictability ultimately leads to her death when she unwittingly puts digitalis on her toast. It is definitely murder, and the local sheriff fingers Meg Traeger for the murderer. After all, Meg not only took digitalis regularly, but was in Lorretta's apartment the night before her death--arguing. She had the motive, the means, and the opportunity. Amy Traeger, Meg's niece, convinces her lover, police detective Lucia Ramos to accompany her to Alabama and engage in some off-duty sleuthing to clear her aunt of all charges. They soon uncover the full extent of Lorretta's unpopularity and establish the likelihood that everyone touched by her could have reason to wish her dead. Establishing who actually did kill her proves to be much more complicated.
