| Summary: |
When a nationally televised singing competition comes to Pleasant Creek, Indiana, it's music to Liz Eckardt's ears. Business is booming all over town, especially at her bed-and-breakfast, the Olde Mansion Inn. Two talented sets of songsters are packing her house, and she is happy to offer them the practiced rhythm of her hospitality. But it soon becomes clear that not all of Liz's guests are in tune with each other. The tone darkens when flyers protesting the event appear on windshields, and business owners- including Liz- receive threatening calls. Even Material Girls Opal adds her voice to the chorus of dissent. Later, acts of sabotage occur, clearly designed to make the contestants sing the blues. Is the villain a solo act, or is there a concerted effort to bring down the curtain on the show? Meanwhile, an eccentric woman belts out some awful accusations at Liz's dear friends and tenants, Mary Ann and Sadie. She seems determined to settle a score. But Liz can't help suspecting that not only does she march to the beat of a different drummer, she might be orchestrating all the sour notes sounding around town. With the help of Beans the dog and her own girl group, Liz must figure out how to restore harmony to pleasant Creek before someone stops the music- for good. |
