Rebecca Robbins, small-town amateur sleuth, remains eager to sell the Toe Stop Skating Rink and return to Chicago. Unfortunately, she is experiencing numerous obstacles. Chief among them is her hunky veterinarian boyfriend, Lionel Franklin, who still hasn't asked her to marry him. Next is Pop, her oversexed grandfather, who has become a successful Elvis impersonator. Complicating matters is Rebecca's estranged father, the scheming, conniving Stan Robbins, who has returned to Indian Falls. Lastly, she is determined to find the one responsible for stealing cars and setting fire to them, especially when someone dies.

Product Description: Rebecca is desperate to sell her inherited roller skating rink in small-town Indian Falls, and--finally--she has a buyer. She can't wait to head back to Chicago, especially now that her long delinquent father has blown back into town. But Lionel, her large-animal vet boyfriend, thinks she should stay put. And the gang at the Senior Center wants her to track down the thief who's been hot-wiring rusted-out classic cars. Unable to resist, Rebecca soon has the Sheriff's Deputy threatening to arrest her for obstruction and strange, scary men threatening her life. Then cars start exploding, with people in them, and Rebecca's father goes missing. With the help of her Elvis-impersonating grandfather, Rebecca must find the pyromaniac car thief and put a stop to him--before he stops her first.

This is the second in a delightful cozy series filled with small town charm and delicious laughs.
