Maybell never expected to bump into her high school drama rival again. But May's old nemesis has apparently been taking acting lessons. Otherwise, she could never have performed the role of a corpse so convincingly. Oh. Wait...

Asked to take part in a community theatre production for charity, Maybell Ferth thought it would be fun to do something she loved while helping kids in her hometown. But, there was a problem.

Patrice Reynolds had been the bane of May's existence since high school drama class. When she left community theatre behind, May promised herself she'd never let the woman get under her skin again. But fate wasn't letting her off the hook that easily.

It was just like Patrice to end up dead in a way that implicated May. Her very public battles with the difficult diva shine a light on May as the number one suspect. The only way to clear her name is to put her professional mourning skills into practice at the funeral. With a murder to solve and her own future at stake, Maybell's acting chops are going to be sorely tested.
