The quaint town of Brookville was just what Trixie Tanner needed for a fresh start. The condominium brochure promised, "Your vacation destination for everyday living," and so far, it was true. She loved her new condo, the charming town, and her new life.

But during Trixie's early morning run, all that changed. A piercing scream shattered the morning tranquility and the illusion. When the body of a young woman is discovered murdered on the condominium trail, Brookville's idyllic façade starts to crumble.

Despite warnings from law enforcement and the formidable medical examiner, Trixie and her new friends Martha, a quirky CSI-wannabe, and Kathleen, a prim and proper retired schoolteacher, the Lady Dragons of Brookville join forces to find the killer and become the voice for the dead.
