Introducing "Jo" Fuller, a woman who's full-figured, full of attitude and always ready to use her sizable sluething skills.

Her best friend Nina--a clothing designer for large ladies--is lying dead in her own apartment. Could Nina be the latest victim of a killer targeting voluptuous women? Or is the murder personal? When Jo moves into Nina's apartment to settle her affairs and take care of Nina's cat, she encounters a bizarre host of neighbors and an unexpected romance. As fingers point in every direction, Jo races to stop a ruthless murderer from closing in on the big kill. This description may be from another edition of this product.
