Floridians can claim another sleuthing marvel--and Kennedy has the beginning of a hit series. Charming, humorous, sassy psychologist Maggie Walsh is a cross between Carrie Bradshaw and Dr. Jennifer Melfi as she deals with flaky co-workers, a screen-siren mother and the attentions of a sexy detective and a gorgeous hotelier. The plot lures the unsuspecting reader into the laid-back Florida coast before turning up the volume on the competitive world of new age gurus.
Summary: Maggie left her Manhattan practice for sunny Cypress Grove, Florida. where she hosts
a talk radio show on WYME, parceling out psychological wisdom between interviews with guests, commercial
readings and turns on the news floor.
All the local lunatics appear to love her show. Well, maybe not all of them. She receives threats
on her phone lines while interviewing New Age guru Sanjay Gingii. When he turns up dead, Maggie's
roommate Lark comes under suspicion by an annoying--and gorgeous--detective. Maggie not
only has to prove Lark's innocence, she must find out who's made more than one attempt on her life.
