Snared by the Snake - Nailed It Home Reno Mysteries, #6

Nailed It Home Reno owners Rowena Summerfield and her daughter, Valerie, thought they'd seen it all, but the derelict Mehaffy House is a first. Rumor has it the place is haunted. Though the women scoff at the idea, there's no denying weird things are happening. But the job gets even stranger when their plumber, Harper, becomes the chief suspect in the murder of her male-model boyfriend. Once again, Ro is called upon to work with her old homicide partner, Hercules Morgan, to help find the killer.
The plumber's snake might have been the murder weapon, but Ro isn't convinced the woman was careless enough to leave her tool behind. Is she being framed? And who else wanted her boyfriend dead? They don't have to look far for other suspects. The victim lived in a former motel turned modeling school and agency, and under the glitz and muscles they find dysfunctional relationships, drained finances, professional jealousy and suspicious behavior.
And the victim might not have been so innocent either. Can Ro and Herc find the culprit before the case drives them plumb crazy?
