Synopsis

USA TODAY bestselling author Pamela Crane brings her trademark mystery twists to laugh-out-loud women's fiction in this unputdownable novel.

When Sam Stanton's father dies from prescription complications, she pulls up her big-girl undies and demands to hold the drug company responsible. As her father always said, if you want to take down the man, you've got to fight like one. So she converts her great room into a greenhouse and becomes the first holistic advice columnist to challenge modern medicine. But it's 1970, and Sam's readers are wary to accept health advice from anyone but a man. 

Except one person takes an obsessive interest in Sam's herbal remedies: Thomas Cook, her pharmaceutical adversary with more money than J. Paul Getty, and a reach long enough to squash Sam's unconventional ways...like the way she cures marital dry spells with horny goat weed-it's not called that for nothing! But Sam is about to dose him with a tough pill to swallow: her column is upheaving the medical industry, along with women's roles in it. 

Thomas isn't the only jilted ego out to get Sam as her old flame reemerges, bringing a warning. When a disturbing detail mysteriously surfaces about her father's death, she becomes a target scandalized, risking everything she's spoken out to save.

Doused with humor and starring an irresistibly quirky leading lady, one woman refuses orders to take her medicine (like a man) and overthrows convention instead.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:

"If there's one book you absolutely must read, this is it. Hilarious, original, and page-turning entertainment, I laughed until I cried and cried until I laughed. Every woman (and man, if he knows what's good for him) must read this." - reader review ★★★★★

"Superbly written, deliciously feminist, and darkly witty! It's a whole new genre of women's fiction blended with mystery that we've been waiting for." - reader review ★★★★★

About this title

About the Author

To know PAMELA CRANE, you first need to know her husband. He sleeps with one eye open. He checks the knife block to make sure none are missing. Why? It could be because they have four kids and a farm full of mischievous animals. Or it could be because she writes murder mysteries, and about the occasional woman who has lost her marbles (not based on her real-life psyche, she swears!). Don't worry-her husband is safe...for now. Her books range from witty whodunnits to psychological suspense and even humorous women's fiction thrown in for good measure. She's a USA TODAY bestselling author of over a dozen novels (who's counting?), but her biggest accomplishment is keeping her zoo of animals alive...and her husband in check.
