“You must be pretty proud of yourself right now,” Phoebe said. “You must be feeling pretty smart, tricking a nice old lady like that.”
Savannah leaned across the table and fixed her with a level, pointed look. “You killed someone, Phoebe. It was premeditated, cold-blooded murder. If I had been dumb enough to drink your chicory coffee, you would have killed me, too. That's not the sort of thing a nice old lady does to another woman. Especially one who helped her plant flowers in her garden.”
She had touched a chord. Phoebe's face crumpled again, and this time her tears seemed to be flowing from genuine remorse.
“Will you check on my Mr. Lincolns and John F. Kennedys from time to time?” she asked, as Dirk walked through the kitchen door, holding a pair of handcuffs. “Even if Ford recovers from his stroke, he doesn't know spit about roses.”
“It would be my honor,” Savannah replied.
And as she watched Dirk lead Phoebe Chesterfield away, Savannah didn't feel particularly proud or especially smart. More than anything, she just felt tired and sad.
 
“I have to tell you, I've made more satisfying busts in my day,” Dirk said as they entered the all-night diner and took a booth in the back. “Booking an old lady isn't my idea of a good time.”
“She's a killer.”
“Yeah, yeah. But ... ”
“I know. Think how I feel. I actually like her.”
“She was gonna kill you.”
“I know. But I still liked her. It's a female, flower-planting, bonding thing. You male nongardeners couldn't understand.”
“Thank God. I don't want to understand. You're very weird, even for a broad.”
“Thank you.”
They ordered their coffee, Dirk's donut, and Savannah's cherry pie.
“I guess Lou Hanks will be relieved,” Savannah said. “Now he'll get his insurance money and maybe put Royal Palms on its feet again.”
“He's not the only one who's relieved. I talked to Dr. Ross at the hospital, and he's glad to be off the hook, too. By the way, I located the market where he rented that rug shampoo machine. He'd just screwed up the name of the place.”
“Then why was he paying off Josef Orlet?”
“Because he didn't want to go through all that hassle again, the medical board's investigation, the bad press. He figured it was easier to just fork over the money and hope for the best. But he's decided to file a complaint against Orlet for extortion. Looks like I'll be able to get him for breaking his parole. He'll be back in the slammer where he belongs.”
“Good boy. I'll have to buy your donut for you.”
Dirk smiled. Free donuts were his favorite.
“Dion's going to be okay?” Savannah asked.
“Last I heard, yes. And Ford Chesterfield will need a lot of rehabilitation therapy, but he'll make it, too.” He took a big bite of the pastry and chewed ... in ecstasy. Dirk was easily pleased. “All's well that ends well, huh?”
Savannah thought of the recently transplanted azalea bush and knew that the plant would thrive in its new setting. Phoebe wouldn't be so lucky. Prison would destroy her.
“Yeah,” she said. “I guess so.”
 
“Heaven ... I'm in heaven,” Savannah crooned as the gorgeous Polynesian hunk in the bright orange loincloth finished wrapping her body in the warm, herbal-scented cloths. “Now this is my idea of a spa.”
“An improvement?” Ryan asked. He lay on the table next to hers, also cocooned in blissful warmth and delicate, floral fragrance.
“No comparison. Absolutely none.”
“We wanted you to have a pleasant spa experience,” said John, who was lying at her other side. “So, we decided to whisk you away for a few days. After what you endured at the hands of those barbarians, you deserve a little pampering.”
“Amen and hallelujah!”
All three were inside a tiny bamboo hut with a tin roof. A light tropical rain was tinkling on the metal, sounding like a hundred miniature jungle drums. Savannah couldn't recall a more delicious moment in her entire life. Unless, maybe, it was the mint scalp massage she had received hours earlier, or the coconut oil, full-body rubdown, skillfully delivered by the same underdressed, overmuscled hunk in the loincloth.
“There's a luau this evening,” Ryan said. “The roast pork melts in your mouth.”
“Those magnificent pineapple, mango, rum drinks of theirs ... ” John sighed. “... and the singing and dancing until dawn. I can hardly wait.”
“Heaven, I'm in heaven.” Savannah closed her eyes as Ryan and John joined her in three-part harmony.
In two days, she would be back in San Carmelita, paying overdue bills, wondering who her next client might be, scheming about how to keep a floundering detective agency on its feet.
But for now ... the real world could wait. How often did a woman get to experience pure paradise?
Plus-sized P.I. Savannah Reid gets a taste of the high life when she attends a Hollywood premiere on the arm of husband Dirk Coulter. Savannah may be a newlywed, but even she gets weak in the knees when she meets celebrity athlete-turned-movie-star Jason Tyrone. So imagine how she feels when the star's rock-hard body is found rock-hard dead...
 
Some guys have everything. With his stunning looks and dazzling charm, former heavyweight champ Jason Tyrone is America's favorite new action hero. Make that was. Once so spectacular in action, the blockbuster idol was found dead in his hotel room after his latest premiere. Despite his chiseled physique, Jason is never getting up again...
 
Though the autopsy reveals Jason may have gotten his killer body through doping, no one wants to believe the beloved athlete is a fraud, least of all Savannah. Soon she's deeply immersed in the dark world of body enhancing drugs, and wondering if the world-class gym where Jason worked out is really just a front for a lucrative drug ring. Was Jason's death the price he paid for threatening to expose other celebrities caught in the clutch of keeping a flawless image? Or was everyone's favorite hero a victim of his own desire to always be at the top of his game? No stranger to society's obsession with image, Savannah is determined to get to the truth. And for the voluptuous investigator, this time it's personal....

G.A. McKevett's next Savannah Reid mystery
KILLER PHYSIQUE
coming in April 2014!
Chapter One
Standing at her bathroom sink, staring at the disgruntled, newly-married woman in the mirror, Savannah Reid rehearsed the speech she intended to give the jury at her murder trial. It would be during the sentencing phase, no doubt, because she fully intended to plead “Guilty.”
She was certain that if there was even one semi-persnickety female on the jury, she'd escape the needle.
“You have to understand, ladies and gentlemen, that I spent three and a half long weeks redecorating that bathroom - all in anticipation of his parents' visit. I'm pretty sure I messed up my back permanently by hanging those fancy ceiling tiles ... the ones that used to be white, but are now all globbed up with dribs and drabs of blue shaving foam. How in heaven's name does a grown man get shaving foam on the ceiling?”
She glanced around at the carnage of her freshly-renovated bathroom and added in her thick, Georgia drawl, “I reckon the same way he got it all over the sink, the faucet handle, the light switch, and the mirror. My dear jury members, you haven't lived ‘til you've tried to scrub that stuff off a mirror. It's blue cement. You can take a razor blade and fingernail polish remover to it, and it won't budge.”
A brisk knock on the door interrupted her plea for mercy.
“You in there?” inquired a deep, annoyed, male voice.
“Yeah,” she barked back.
“You comin' out soon? Or am I gonna have to go downstairs again to do my business?”
She jerked the door open and stood, nose-to-nose, with her beloved new husband - give or take a few inches. “Boy, you and your thimble-sized bladder are irritatin' the daylights outta me.”
He shrugged and grinned down at her with a sexy smirk that would have set her bloomers atwitter, were it not for the devastation behind her.
“Hey,” he said, “when the dragon needs drainin', what's a guy to do?”
He waited, giving her plenty of time to chuckle, or at least grin. But all he got was an icy blue stare. It was the glacial glare that had made former cop, now private detective, Savannah Reid, infamous among suspected murderers, robbers, embezzlers, and jaywalkers. Evildoers of all shapes and sizes, including husbands who left the toilet seat up and burped loudly in fancy restaurants, had been on the receiving end of those cobalt lasers.
Rolling his eyes, Dirk moaned and said, “Oh, man. I'm always in trouble. What did I do this time?” Stepping to one side, so that he would have a clear, unobstructed view of the crime scene, she waved an arm to indicate the extent of the damages. “That,” she said. “That's what you did. Again.”
He gave the room a cursory glance and drowned, obviously confused. “What? What's the matter? Did I fold the towel in half instead of perfect thirds? Did I leave the cap off the toothpaste? Am I gonna get shot at sunrise or hanged from the neck until dead?”
She decided not to tell him that she had, indeed, been fantasizing about an execution only moments before. Her own. Society's recompense for premeditated, first degree homicide.
As she watched his eyes dart around the room, registering absolutely nothing amiss, by his own lax non-standards, her ire rose. “Does this room look neat and tidy to you?” she asked.
“I've seen worse,” he replied.
“Yes, I'm sure you have. But not in
my
house. Look at those toothpaste spit specks all over the mirror.”
“Hey, happens when I floss. You don't want a husband with lousy dental hygiene, do you?”
“And why did you leave your deodorant, shave cream can, and jock itch powder there on the sink again? I asked you to put them back in the medicine cabinet when you're done with them.”
He looked genuinely perplexed. “But why should I go to all that work when tomorrow I'm just gonna have to drag ‘em out so's I can use 'em again?”
“AI-I-I that work? Dra-a-ag ‘em out? You act like I'm asking you to pick a bale o' cotton in the hot, Georgia sun.”
He gave her a sappy, condescending smile that was, no doubt, intended to smooth her ruffled feathers, but in fact, accomplished exactly the opposite. “If I put those three tiny little things away,” he said, “will that make my beautiful, new bride happy?”
“I reckon,” she grumbled. “And maybe you could wipe off the mirror once in a month of Sundays, since it's you who gunks it all up four times a day.”
Sighing deeply, he trudged past her into the room, picked up his offending toiletries and with great ceremony, placed them in the medicine chest. He fussed with the containers for what seemed like forever to Savannah, making quite a show of spacing them perfectly, evenly, among their neighbors, turning the labels straight outward, then re-adjusting ad nauseum.
With that delicate mission accomplished, he strode to the toilet, unrolled a giant handful of tissue, and returned to the sink. Still grinning like a goat munching sand burrs, he flipped on the sink faucet and wetted the paper.
As Savannah's blood pressure soared, he calmly, casually, smeared the sodden wad all over the mirror, leaving bits of soggy mess behind. Unfortunately, the blue blobs of shaving cream remained undisturbed.
Standing behind him, her face turning redder by the moment, Savannah looked around the room for potential murder weapons and wondered if it were possible to inflict a fatal wound with a Lady Gillette aloe-moisturizing bikini line shaver.
“There,” he exclaimed, proudly displaying his handiwork. “Happy now?”
“Plum ecstatic,” she muttered.
“Good. And now that I'm in here, I'm gonna choke the chicken. So, unless you've got some picky-ass directions about how I oughta do that, too, you might manna skedaddle.”
With her chin a few notches higher than usual, a grim look on her face, Savannah marched stiffly to the door. She paused there for a moment as a hundred or so of Granny Reid's admonitions about “living in harmony with the man the good God gave ya” and “overlookin' the better part of a husband's transgressions bein' the path to domestic tranquility” danced through her head.
She could take the high road and just walk out without saying another word. That would be noble, virtuous.
Blessed are the peacemakers, and all that good stuff.
Dirk was, after all, a decent man. He loved her. He'd put his crap away with a smile - okay, a smirk - on his face and kinda, sorta cleaned up when she'd asked him to. What more could a woman ask, really?
Yes, she would put away her anger and choose the path of peace.
Virtue, after all, had its own reward... mostly in the form of self-righteous gloating.
Then she heard a sound behind her that made every muscle in her body kink into a knot. A merry little tinkling sound.
Not the sound of liquid hitting water. Oh, no. It was the unmistakable merry little melody of pee hitting tile.
She whirled on him with a vengeance. “Dammit all, Dirk! At the shooting range, you score 49 out of 50 shots from 25 yards—standing, kneeling
and
prone! But you can't hit a dadgum toilet that's two feet away?”
He stood - chicken partially choked, dragon half drained - a look of shock and confusion on his face. “What?”
“If I were to paint a bull's-eye on the bottom of the bowl, do you reckon it'd improve that piss-poor aim of yours?”
He thought about it. Long and hard. Then, having given it all due consideration, he solemnly nodded, smiled and said, “It could. Yes, I think it might at that. Good idea, babe. You get on that right away.”
“You...! You... ! I oughta... ! A-a-u-u-gh!”
She stomped out of the room and slammed the door behind her, rocking the house to its foundation.
As she strode down the hallway, she could hear her groom laughing his butt off on the other side of the bathroom door.
Yeah, well, at least somebody's enjoying all this wedded bliss,
she thought.
“Laugh it up, Fuzzball,” she muttered as she went into the bedroom to get dressed for their big night out. “I'll getcha back. One way or the other.”
Granny Reid had told her many times, “Don't let the sun set on your wrath, Savannah girl. No matter how bad the squabblin's been that day, come nighttime you always make it right ‘tween you and your man before you lay your head on your willow to sleep.”
Savannah had no problem with that sage advice. It would be at least seven hours or more before they retired for the evening. Surely, she could arrange some soul-gratifying form of revenge before then.
Nope, she had no intention of going to bed angry. Come nighttime, she intended to be giggling on that pillow and rubbing her hands with glee.
Chapter Two
As Savannah rode down the Ventura Highway in the rear seat of the beautiful old Bentley - on her way to a major Hollywood movie premiere, dressed to the nines in her best, sapphire silk dress - she couldn't help thinking about that tiny, rural town where she had grown up.
McGill, Georgia was, and remained, little more than a wide spot in a rough, pothole-ridden road.
Thanks to Granny Reid, who'd raised Savannah and her eight siblings, Savannah had many pleasant childhood memories. But she had even more grim ones from the days before Granny had taken custody of her grandchildren. And at times like this, when her life was full to overflowing with the abundant blessings of basic needs fulfilled, loving friends, and the occasional adventure, like this one, she thought about the child she had been in McGill.
Sometimes she enjoyed the irrational, but healing, fantasy of the adult Savannah returning to yesteryear, scooping up the ragged little girl she had been, setting her on her lap, and telling the child, “Things are gonna get a whole lot better, darlin', when you grow up. You just hang in there and it'll happen, sooner than you think. You're just a little caterpillar now. But when you grow up, you're gonna be a big, beautiful butterfly.”
It would have helped, she had no doubt. Because if anybody in the world could benefit from a crystal ball that showed a sparkling future, it was a poor kid from McGill, Georgia, struggling to make it through a tough childhood in a dark place with limited hope.
As Dirk reached over, took her hand, folded it between his large, warm ones, and squeezed, her earlier irritations toward him melted away. She gave him a sideways glance, then a wink, and a grin that deepened her dimples. She had to admit he looked darn good in a tux. The end results were almost worth the trouble of having to hogtie him first to get him into it.
He leaned his head down to hers and nuzzled her dark curls with his nose. She prepared her heart for the sweet nothing he was about to whisper in her ear.
“See?” he said, “I didn't have to wear this stupid penguin outfit, after all. The damn tie's choking me so bad I can't even swallow my own spit. Any minute now I'm gonna start drooling down the front of this sissy shirt.”
Okay, she thought.
Which will it be? Kill him with kindness? Or just open the car door and push him out?
She decided to be nice. “Nice” was the programmed, default mode for Southern belles. Though she could flip the switch into “Cantankerous” when the situation warranted it - when “Nice” wasn't getting her what she wanted,.
Long ago, she had decided that Dixie gentility had more to do with effectiveness and efficiency than any code of ethics. And being a pragmatist, she had no problem with that.
“But darlin',” she cooed, “you look so handsome in a tuxedo. Sorta like James Bond, Clint Eastwood on Oscar night, and Elvis — all rolled into one.”
“Now, when did you ever see the King wearing a tux?”
“I don't knows. He probably did when he and Priscilla got married.”
Dirk nodded toward the front of the car, where their good friends, Ryan Stone and John Gibson sat - John at the wheel and Ryan in the passenger seat. “Yeah, well, you were wrong about the formal wear crap, about me having to wear this stupid thing to this stupid shindig. They're not wearing tuxedos. Hell, Ryan's not even got a tie on. I feel like an overdressed idiot. And that's the worst kind - gussied up and uncomfortable.”
Savannah considered telling him the truth, which was: When you look like Ryan Stone, tall, dark, gorgeous hunk that he is, you didn't need a tie.
With a body like Ryan's, he would've looked good in a barrel, or better yet, in Savannah's humble opinion, a loincloth.
“He may not be wearing a tuxedo,” she whispered. “But that's an Armani suit he's got on. I'm pretty sure that John's is Prada.”
She glanced up and her eyes met John's in the rearview mirror. Obviously having heard what she'd said, he was giving her one of his warm, kind hearted smiles.
“Before you complain too bitterly, old chap, about your formal attire,” John said, his British accent thick and lush, like his silver hair and mustache, “remember that when this evening's festivities are over, you're the only lad in this vehicle who'll be going home with that lovely lady sitting next to you.”
Dirk gave a little sniff. “It ain't like the two of you wanna go home with her, or any other lady for that matter.”
Savannah gave him a warning pinch on the thigh. But Ryan turned in his seat, a grin on his face, and gave Dirk a long, deliberate, head-to-toe look. “If I were you, and I wanted to update my look, I'd ditch the tie, open the collar, and muss up my hair a bit.”
Savannah cringed, knowing how well that suggestion would go over. Mussed hair looked a lot better on the guy like Ryan, who had plenty to muss. Dirk, on the other hand, worked long and hard on his hair to make the most of every precious strand. To a guy with so many bare spots to cover, “mussing” was simply not an option.
True to form, Dirk scrowled and grumbled something semi-menacing under his breath as he peeled off the tie, shoved it into his pocket and unfastened his top two studs.
Savannah decided she'd better turn things around, before her hubby's mood plummeted into the Dirk Abyss. In the space of two hours, he had been yelled at for messing up the bathroom, then squashed into a tuxedo that he now realized he didn't have to wear, and told to muss up hair that he didn't have.
She recognized the signs; their evening steeped in Hollywood glamour was circling the toilet. A full-fledged flush was imminent.
“I hear the special-effects in this movie are amazing,” she said a bit too brightly. “And they say that Jason Tyrone's been bulking up like crazy. Looks even better than he did in his last film.”
A sideways glance at Dirk told her that this road might not be the one to take either.
“And the gal who plays the heroine looks fantastic, too,” she added quickly. “‘Fills out her barely-there costume exactly like a super hot, Celtic goddess should.' I believe that's what
The New York Times
reviewer said.”
Dirk rewarded her efforts with a broad grin.
Ryan and John chuckled.
“Indeed,” John said, as he guided the Bentley off the 101 and onto the Hollywood. Freeway, heading toward Los Angeles. “I believe those were the reviewer's words verbatim.”
“At least if it's got Jason Tyrone in it you know there's gotta be some ass kicking action,” Dirk said. “It ain't gonna be one of those girlie flicks where everybody's just sitting around talking to each other, and the audience blubbers their faces off at the end.”
“Heaven forbid,” Ryan said with a smile and a wink for Savannah. “I think you two will enjoy it. The production values are top rate, the special effects are awesome, and the acting and the script are pretty good, considering that it's a superhero action film.”
“But above all else,” John added, “we're looking forward to introducing you to Jason. He's a fine lad. Hasn't let all this fame and fortune go to his head.”
“That's true.” Ryan nodded. “We've know him since he was a kid, cashing dishes in the bars and restaurants on Sunset Strip and working his way to the top in bodybuilding competition.”
“Didn't he do some modeling, too?” Savannah asked. “I think I remember seeing him and all of his muscles on billboards.”
“Yeah, wearing nothing but his skivvies.” Dirk gave a sniff. “You'd never catch me posing for something like that, showing' the whole world what I got.”
“Oh, yeah?” Savannah gave him a poke in the ribs. “I seem to remember a certain policeman hunks charity calendar, where you were Mr. December. And if it wasn't for a well-placed Christmas package, you would've been showing off a certain package of your own.”
Ryan whipped around in his seat. “What's this? A
hunk
calendar? First we've heard of this.”
“Indeed!” John added. “We require details, details.”
Dirk growled and shot Savannah a You-Started-This-Crap look. “It was for a good cause, and the present I was holding was extra-large. That's all the details you two need. What were we talking about before?”
“Jason Tyrone and how hot he is right now,” Savannah said. “Even Granny Reid knows who he is. Every week, he's on the cover of the tabloid she reads. To her that's the epitome of success.”
“A success to be sure,” John replied as he brought the Bentley to a halt on the congested street. “Look at this bloody mess, and we're still blocks from the theater. ”
Ryan took out his phone, did some research, and said, “They have Hollywood. Boulevard blocked off between Highland Avenue and Orange Drive. Parking may be a bit of a challenge. Are you two up to a hike?”
Savannah thought of the movie trailer she had seen - multitudes of scantily clad, bronzed bodies with rippling muscles as far as you could see. She glanced over at Dirk and saw his grin and the lusty twinkle in his eye. Her womanly, wifely intuition told her he was thinking something similar about buxom Celtic goddesses overflowing their costumes.
“Oh, yeah,” she said. “We're up for a bit of a jaunt, ain't we, darlin'?” She nudged Dirk.
He chuckled. “Absolutely. Park anywhere you can. We'll hoof it from here.”
 
 
Jaunts in three-inch heels were highly overrated. And so was wearing a long-sleeved, crap around, silk dress on a warm Southern California day. Or so Savannah decided after six blocks of jostling through the rambunctious crowds en route to their destination.
Savannah and her three favorite fellows passed through numerous security checkpoints as they fought their way to the center of the festivities. But each time, Ryan presented the magic tickets — even before Dirk could take his badge out of his pocket - and they were graciously motioned past.
“Kinda nice being treated like royalty, huh?” Savannah said, nudging Dirk with her elbow.
“I get this every morning at my local 7-Eleven where I buy my lottery ticket. Or at least I used to, before I became a married man and had to give up all my vices.”
“Oh, yes, all those decadent vices of yours: leaving the toilet seat up, dropping your dirty drawers on the bedroom floor, littering the place with empty beer bottles.”
“Rituals that are near and dear to the male heart. Abandoned, all for the love of a woman.”
“I never told you to stop playing lotto.”
“But now that I don't live by that store, I can't buy my tickets there.”
“Buy them somewhere else. There's a convenience store two blocks from my house.”
“Nope. It's gotta be my lucky store or nothin'.”
She looked up at him, gave him a flirtatious grin, and whispered, “I didn't hear you complaining about all these changes in your life last night, when I was abusing you something fierce between the sheets.”
He chuckled. “This marriage stuff isn't without its benefits. That brand of mistreatment I can handle.”
“Manly man that you are.”
“Exactly.”
As they drew nearer to Grauman's landmark theater with its Chinese pagoda façade and famous hand and footprints captured for eternity in cement, the celebratory pandemonium around them increased exponentially.
In front of the gigantic columns that flanked the ornate, gilded double doors, stood twenty-feet tall, cut-out figures of Jason and his co-star, Alanna Cleary. They wore the brief, leather and bronze costumes of their supernatural, superhero characters, Dagda and Caolainn.
Savannah wondered what it must feel like, to be a mere mortal and look up at those figures and see your face and body. In society's eyes, they were the epitome of mankind and womanhood.
Like most people who weighed more than the charts recommended, Savannah was quite aware that she didn't live up to the culture's ideal. But unlike most people, she had managed to stop giving a hoot.
Her body was strong, healthy, and, most importantly, it provided a place for her to hang out here on earth and enjoy life's most basic pleasures. So, she was thankful for it and loved it. Every pound and inch of it.
And she felt no envy at all, staring up at Alanna Cleary's taut, tanned belly with its exaggerated six-pack.
Okay, maybe just a smidgen of envy,
she admitted, before turning her attention away from the advertised and unattainable.
But not nearly jealous enough to ruin such a good time.
As she looked around at the rowdy crowd, she was glad she wasn't in charge of security at this wild event. Temporary barricades barely restrained the hoard of fans, hoping to catch a glimpse of their superheroes. Even within the areas restricted to the press alone, seasoned reporters jumped up and drown, like crazed teenagers at a rock concert, and chanted the names, “Jason” and “Alanna.”
Each time a celebrity exited one of the gleaming, black limousines and stepped onto the red carpet, hundreds of cameras flashed, twinkling like fairy starlight dusted over the crowd.
Savannah decided that, in spite of all the derogatory remarks she had heard directed toward Hollywood., she considered herself very fortunate indeed to be here, enjoying this bit of Never Neverland, this fairytale fantasy coming to life in the real world.
“I gotta admit, this doesn't suck as bad as I thought it would,” Dirk whispered as he squeezed her hand.
She smiled. Fluent as she was in Dirk-language, she knew that translated into, “I'm having the time of my life!”
“Understate whenever possible” was Rule Number One in the
Manly-Man Handbook.
And she knew, if there had been room, Dirk would have had that booklet tattooed on his left buttock, so strongly did he believe and uphold its precepts.
