A formal dinner in palatial, Gilded Age Newport stuns Val DeVere when her closest friend whispers a terrifying rumor. The friend''s ultra-rich auntie''s fatal heart attack at Mrs. Astor''s annual ball last winter was murder.
When the aunt''s reclusive daughter-and heir-succumbs to "heart failure," Val and husband Roddy probe the deaths to shield their dear friend who is next in line to inherit the family fortune-and sudden death.
Society''s "odd couple," Val and Roddy, a.k.a. Valentine and Roderick DeVere, blend his Old New York savvy and her mountain West vision to ask: Is Newport truly Society''s "place to take root in," or a dear friend''s place to die?
