Plot Summary: 

Mona Dearly, a spiteful, loud-mouthed, unpopular woman dies when the car she is driving in plunges off a cliff and into a river near the small upstate New York town where she lives. Wyatt Rash, the local police chief, investivates and suspects foul play in Mona’s death and tries to contain the whole town whom all are suspects who include Wyatt’s daughter Ellen, who is going to marry landscape artist Bobby Calzone whose business was suffering from his lazy business partner, Jeff, Mona’s slow-witted son, as well as waitress Rona Mace, who was having an affair with Mona’s husband.

When Mona’s key won’t fit in her Yugo, she tries it in her son’s; when it works, she borrows his car. The brakes fail; she goes through the guard rail, into the river, and drowns. When police chief Rash learns that the brake lines were cut, he looks for a murderer. Suspect one: Mona’s dim son Jeff, whom she constantly denigrated. Suspect two: her husband Phil, whom she constantly belittled and who’s having an affair with Rona, a waitress with a secret of her own. Suspect three: Jeff’s landscape partner Bobby, who wants Jeff out, has yelled at Mona that he’d like to rip out her ovaries, and who is soon to be Rash’s son-in-law. Can Rash find the killer and keep Bobby out of jail? Written by {jhailey@hotmail.com}
