"Death is on the menu... On Thanksgiving weekend, linguist Ella Barton becomes stranded in a small town -- a town not on any map. And there's something strange about the residents. Keystone Village is a blast from the past, full of vintage cars and buildings that look like they haven't changed since the 1950s. And neither have the residents. Most of them are anxious for Ella to leave, and so is she -- as soon as she can get her car fixed. However, when eating at the local diner, Ella's waitress drops dead, and the local sheriff suspects Ella's to blame. With he help of a handsome inventor, two mischievous older ladies, and a squirrel with a strange sense of fashion, Ella relies on her spunk, wit and a lot of coffee to find the killer before she's locked up for a murder she didn't commit. Can Ella hunt down the bad guy before it's too late? And will she ever make it home again?" -- Back cover.
