A MRS. MELITA PARGETER MYSTERY - The dashing Mrs.Pargeter, at 60 years and a-wee-bit-more, had just made a daring move...into the post yuppie housing development called Smith's Loam. If she didn't know what to expect from surburban living, it certainly wasn't a dead body in the fridge. What would her upscale neighbors say about a corpse on ice? Mrs.Pargeter...with a little help from her late husband's underworld friends...was determined to find out. But snooping into the secrets of the executives next door, the affairs of a pretty au pair girl, and the hidden vices of the five lonely, and perhaps mad, housewives of Smithy's Loam might do more than unmask a killer. It could make Mrs.Pargeter's next move final. Dead final... 1990. 248 pages. PB in good condition.
