Drop Dead Perfect
by Erasmus Fenn

Idris Seabright is one deranged dame.

A 1950s Florida gargoyle as rich as she is ruthless, Idris expects everyone in her life to be as obedient and unchanging as the subjects of her still-life paintings... and she'll do anything to keep them still.

When a well-endowed Cuban ex-con claiming to be her nephew arrives at her estate just as her lovely young ward threatens to leave for New York, Idris finds her perfect calm in jeopardy.

But Idris might be just as handy with a hatchet as she is with a paintbrush.

The double entendres come a mile a minute in this campy take on classic melodrama.
