Journal Entry 1 by CheriePie from Campbell, California USA on Thursday, January 04, 2007

Frankie Smith's longtime boyfriend just left her for another woman. But she doesn't have much time to nurse her broken heart—her diner is as popular as ever, and the people of Six Palms want their appetites satisfied....

When the body of a wealthy local woman is discovered in a nearby alley, Frankie's troubles suddenly don't seem so terrible. That is, until she realizes she's one of Chief Jack West's prime suspects.

As the twists and turns unfold, letting go of their inhibitions begins to seem like the most natural thing in the world....
