O knihe

When Lorelei Levin - after grasshoppering among 3 universities and studying courses from fine art to film-making to criminalistics - finally graduates, she learns that her parents have sold the family home in Houston and gone on a world cruise. An uncle is delighted to take Lorelei in, but he lives in sleepy, small-town nowheresville. Determined to make the best of it, she applies for a job with the local bank and with all six of the downtown merchants, to no avail. When she spies an empty corner building, Lorelei's ever-active mind envisions it as a perfect gallery to show-place her large metal sculptures. A window poster enlightens her that the lawyers who own the building will be singing that night in another small town nearby. With her uncle visiting in Dallas, Lorelei decides that a trio of singing, guitar-playing lawyers is a treat not to miss. With luck, they'll be delighted to have an artist take over their empty building. She goes, she listens, she enjoys the show, and she recognizes a fellow student from her classes at Sam Houston State - he's wearing a deputy sheriff badge. During intermission, she finds the lawyers are not entirely against her gallery idea. But minutes later, everything takes a spin. The singers are loading up to leave when gunshots ring out from the parking area - and Lorelei soon becomes caught up in a murder investigation. Small-town Texas, where everybody knows everybody - and one of those somebodies is a stone killer.
