Statue of limitations

Abigail Timberlake Washburn, petite but feisty proprietor of Charleston's Den of Antiquity antiques shop, stopped speaking to best friend and temporary decorating partner Wynnell Crawford a month ago--after questioning her choice of a cheap, three-foot-high replica of Michaelangelo's David to adorn thegarden of a local bed-and-breakfast. But now Wynnell has broken the silence with one phone call ... from prison! It seems the b & b owner has been fatally beaned--allegedly by the same tacky statue--and Wynnell's been fingered by the cops for the bashing. But Abby suspects there's more to this well-sculpted slaying than initially meets the eye, and she wants to take a closer look at the not-so-bereaved widower and the two very odd couples presently guesting at the hostelry. Because if bad taste was a capital crime, Wynnell would be guilty as sin--but she's certainly no killer!
