Description
Belle Appleman, the feisty amateur detective of Death and Blintzes, is back on the trail of evil-doers in Boston. It is the mid-1930s and President Roosevelt is working hard to make the Great Depression go away. Belle has left her job at the Classic Clothing Company to work in Harry White's neighborhood drugstore, a homey place where 'everybody drops in for a nickel ice cream cone and free advice.'

When a young girl staggers into the drugstore, collapses and dies, Belle suspects foul play. She teams up with her friend, Irish cop Jim Connors, and soon finds herself embroiled in homicide and danger. She is certain that one of the Beacon Hill doctors who come into the drugstore is the guilty party. But which one?

In the meantime, Belle finds romance with a Gary Cooper look-alike; but neither this nor her constant endearing interest in food can distract Belle from her search for a killer.
