In the second Supper Club Mystery, James Henry and his fellow dieters, the Flab Five, are not meeting with much success on their low-carb plan. A new ice cream shop, Chilly Willy’s Polar Pagoda, has opened in Quincy’s Gap, Virginia, and it’s loads more appealing than eating what they should. Praline sundaes or low-fat popcorn: What would you choose? But newcomer Veronica Levitt has a start-up business of her own, and she’s bent on getting the Flab Five to join her at Witness to Fitness. When a deliberately set fire consumes Chilly Willy’s and takes the life of an employee, James and his friends are on the case. J.B. Stanley’s Fit to Die will appeal to anyone who’s experienced the horror of dieting.
Valiant Women is a vital and engrossing attempt to correct the record and rightfully celebrate the achievements of female veterans of World War II.
