Description

"When Jane Lawless' wise-cracking sidekick Cordelia Thorn is summoned to Summer Green, Wisconsin, for a reunion of the Shevlin Underground - a group made up of Cordelia's five closest theatre friends from college - it quickly becomes evident that reminiscing is not all that is on the weekend's agenda. One of the friends, soap opera star Diana Stanwood, is an alcoholic whose condition is so dangerous that her friends have gathered for an intervention to save her life. Emotions are running high, and when the most secretive member of the Shevlin Underground drops dead, it appears that long-simmering jealousies and resentments have finally come to a head. As the story twists and turns around the elusive lives of these five college friends, Jane and Cordelia zero in on the culprit and unravel a mystery that harkens back nearly twenty years."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
