Newly retired Irma Abercrombie wasn’t looking for drama when she invited Violet Blackheart—an engineer with a serious vitamin D deficiency—for a visit at her island home. But after an armed robbery goes terribly wrong, they get pulled into an island intrigue: Was it a simple snatch and grab, or are there other forces at work? And if Irma’s so retired, why is there a dead guy in her driveway?

Irma’s hands might be deadly weapons, but she’s all thumbs when it comes to computer problems. Next, she has to figure out how to convince Violet to investigate a technology puzzle that might have been masterminded by someone with a taste for murder.

Irma grapples with a bomb threat and wonders how she ended up with a pug as a sidekick…and whether Violet’s hiding a few secrets of her own. Irma’s headed for a showdown on a luxurious island estate, and she’s going to drag Violet along for the ride.
