About this book

The first novel in the Golden Girls Cozy Mystery Series. When Dorothy's date is discovered dead in a hotel freezer, it disrupts both an elaborate cheesecake and Rose's St. Olaf-themed wedding celebration for her cousin, who is eloping to Miami. Dorothy had met her date through a VHS dating service, hoping for good conversation. Instead, she finds herself relying on the company of Sophia, Blanche, and Blanche's romantic prospects. As the four friends prepare for the wedding's tea-and-fish-themed kickoff event, the discovery of Dorothy's date dead in a cheesecake turns the celebration into a murder investigation. With every guest a potential suspect—especially Dorothy—and a wedding hanging in the balance, the four friends must identify the real killer, ensure the couple reaches the altar, and prevent anyone from St. Olaf from getting lost in Miami. The Golden Girls must solve the mystery while preserving both friendship and the wedding day.
