With three kids underfoot, a fourth on the way, and an oppressive heat wave bearing down, homemaker Lucy Stone is hardly enjoying an idyllic summer. But her preoccupation with swelling ankles, Bavarian cream doughnuts, and sewing sequins on ballet-recital tutus gives way to dread when she learns her waistline isnt the only thing thats recently vanished.The strange disappearance of a retired dance instructor has the tiny coastal town of Tinkers Cove, Maine, in a tizzywhich turns into terror when a notoriously cantankerous shopkeeper is slain right on Main Street. Now Lucys up to her bulging belly in suspects and red herrings. Eluded by a cold-blooded killer, with her due date looming and the temperature soaring, she figures something has to break soon. With any luck, it wont be her water
