No Way to Kill a Lady: a Blackbird Sisters Mystery Nancy Martin Reissue edition

Not much is going right these days for once rich, now impoverished Nora Blackbird—what with her lover under house arrest and her best friend in the slammer. Then Nora and her sisters receive word of a million-dollar inheritance....
Great-aunt Madeleine Blackbird has died in a volcanic eruption on an Indonesian island and left her fabulous Bucks County estate to the three Blackbird sisters. But when Nora and her scandal-ridden sisters, Libby and Emma, go to claim their windfall, they find the house in decay and all of their aunt?s to-die-for treasures gone. They also find a woman?s body.... 

Nora feels compelled to seek out the truth, but even with help from her mobster boyfriend, Mick Abruzzo, who provides distractions both dark and delightful, solving this case proves challenging. Relatives are circling to claim a share of Madeleine?s property, the suspect list is growing, and Nora?s wild and wacky sisters are adding one surprise after another. It?s enough to put Nora?s couture undies in a serious twist!
