But no sooner has she begun than she's back to using her amateur sleuth and investigative reporter skills when one of the five players, psychic Aurelia Spangler, is found dead later of a cocaine overdose with a suicide note left behind.Aurelia had given free 'cold readings' to the others in the group, including instructor Wendy, who is firmly convinced that one of the visions cut too close to the bone and someone staged the psychic's suicide while doing away with her. As things unravel slowly, both Wendy and Ross discover that the remaining bridge newbies had their share of secrets and agendas. But it's Wendy who finally makes some sense of the terrifying vision that sent Aurelia and some of the other newbies into a tailspin and cost two people their lives in the quirky Mississippi river port of Rosalie.

Reporter and bridge player Wendy Winchester once again plays ace detective when a country club member is murdered in a hot tub . . . Now an investigative reporter for the Rosalie Citizen in the Mississippi River port of Rosalie, Wendy still likes to unwind over a game of cards. Following the demise of the Rosalie Bridge Club, she's started her own group at the Rosalie Country Club. During the first meeting of the Country Club Bridge Players, the dummy has barely been laid down when another dummy gets in a scuffle at the bar across the room. Bridge player Carly Ogle's husband Brent is at it again. After the club's new female golf pro breaks up the fight, Brent storms off to soak in a hot tub. But Carly soon finds the bullying Brent dead in the water, clubbed over the head with the pestle the barkeep uses to crush leaves for mint juleps. Racist, sexist, homophobic, and an all-around lout, Brent made enough enemies to fill a bridge tournament. So Wendy has to play her cards right to get the story-and stay out of hot water long enough to put the squeeze on the killer . . .
