Publisher's Synopsis
Tabitha Locke and Doug Willis have planned their dream wedding at the palatial Hawthorne Manor and are looking forward to a lifetime of joy and togetherness. But the death of Tabitha's ex-boyfriend, Eric Brownley, at the Hawthorne Manor on the eve of the wedding casts a dreadful chill over the nuptial plans. Then Doug is named as a suspect in Eric's possible murder.
Is it an open-and-shut case of murder, or did a mentally unstable man plot to deny the bride the life she wants? Caroline Steel, the maid of honor, and her friend Jason White, a private detective, are determined to prove the murder was a well-planned suicide and get the groom out of hot water-but something doesn't add up. Caroline and Jason discover more than they bargained for as they frantically search for the missing clue, and Doug squirms over whether he'll spend his wedding night in the arms of his new bride or behind bars.
