A garage sale fanatic searches for evidence to clear her cheating ex of murder in this cozy mystery series opener.
Starting your life over at age thirty-eight isn't easy, but that's what Sarah Winston finds herself facing when her husband CJ runs off with a 19-year-old temptress named Tiffany. Sarah's self-prescribed therapy happily involves hitting all the garage and tag sales in and around her small town of Ellington, Massachusetts. If only she could turn her love for bargain hunting into a full-time career.
But after returning from a particularly successful day searching for yard sale treasures, Sarah finds a grisly surprise in one of her bags: a freshly bloodied shirt . . . that undoubtedly belongs to her ex, CJ, who now happens to be Ellington's chief of police. If that's not bad enough, it seems Tiffany has gone missing. Now it's up to Sarah to prove that her cold-hearted ex is not a cold-blooded killer . . .

      Sarah Winston is starting over at age 38. After her career Air Force husband loses his job over "conduct unbecoming an officer," a euphemism for having an affair with 19-year-old Tiffany, Sarah is single and living on her own without the benefits of a BX (Base Exchange) for the first time in her adult life. To survive financially, Sarah has become a garage sale queen. But when she finds her ex-husband CJ's bloody BDUs (battle dress uniform) in a garbage bag at a tag sale, along with a maternity top marked with Tiffany's name, she knows something is amiss. CJ is now the police chief of Ellington, MA, and while he might be a cheater, Sarah knows he could never be a killer. Something is going on in Ellington, and Sarah means to get to the bottom of it. VERDICT Full of garage-sale tips, this amusing cozy debut introduces an unusual protagonist who has overcome some recent tribulations and become stronger. A solid choice for fans of Jane K. Cleland's "Josie Prescott Antique Mystery" series.
