Stella Hardesty is back and she has a problem. Goat, the local sherrif is finally showing some interest in her when his ex-wife, Bambi, shows up. She's a real piece of work and Stella isn't happy to have her around. She is also trying to help an old client. Neb had an addiction to oxycontin but seems to be doing fine now. That is, until a dead body is found at the fairgrounds under the snack shop that Neb was in charge of building. Did he really kill the woman and bury her and no longer remembers the incident at all? It kind of seems that way but Stella is trying to find out - all without raising Goat's suspicions.
This is another fun book by Sophie Littlefield. She keeps Stella real and fun with her penchant for justice meted out in her own way. Chrissy continues to develop as a character. There is lots of laughter and craziness. I think the plot was a little more straightforward than her first book. I will be looking forward to the next!
