Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Shakespeare, Arkansas, is a small Southern town with plenty of secrets, and Charlaine Harris's Lily Bard, fresh from her acclaimed debut in Shakespeare's Landlord , is just one more of its residents-albeit one harboring a few secrets of her own-with a desire to live quietly.
Lily keeps to herself, between her job as a cleaning woman for several townspeople and her visits to the gym, where she's a devotee of karate and bodybuilding. These two pursuits seem a bit odd for the petite Southern woman, but as work and play, they keep her focused and balanced.
When a fellow gym member is found dead after a workout with a barbell across his throat, Lily wants to believe it's an accident. But looking at the incident against the background of other recent events in Shakespeare, including a few incidents that appear to be racially motivated, she's afraid it could be a part of something much, much bigger-and more sinister...in Shakespeare's Champion .
In Shakespeare, Arkansas, a body builder is found dead in a gym, a barbell across his throat. Lily Bard, who pumps iron in the same gym, sets out to find the killer, her profession--cleaning lady-- giving her access to many homes.
