The residents from Camden-sur-Mer retirement home think Halloween south of the border is pretty frightening. Terrifying tableaus, mummies, candy skulls... and one of their group suddenly dead of a heart attack. Then, on their next outing, there's another tragedy - murder on a dark beach in Ensenada.
The good news is that those unsinkable senior sleuths Angela and Caledonia have a fascinating new crime to investigate. In fact, with a ruthless killer calling the shots, they may have several... if only they can stay off the casualty list.
