This is a Claire Malloy mystery. Claire's daughter, Caron, and her sidekick, Inez, decide (like every teenage girl) that they're fat. What they need is a diet and exercise program -- preferably at the new gym in town. Unfortunately, all is not healthy at the gym and Claire ends up, yet again, investigating a murder. It's full of the trademark Hess wit and idiosyncratic characters. Moms of daughters will especially appreciate this series, with Caron's constantly changing passionate enthusiasms and Capital Letter Conversation.

This was a good book. Inez's and Caron's dieting experiences remind me of many of my own. But this one was too easy to figure out who the "bad guy" was. Still a pleasant read, just not one of her best.
