While pregnant Nora relaxes in her best friend’s Bucks County pool in this updated version of the Blackbird Sisters’ favorite, she doesn’t have far to look for her next big story. A Broadway show is in rehearsal next door and the home of legendary late composer, “Toodles” Tuttle. His diva widow, Boom Book, controls his estate with an iron fist, and she’s racked up a chorus line of enemies along the way. The old broad’s death is a hotly anticipated event, so imagine the dismay when it’s Boom Boom’s beloved daughter Jenny who drops dead just as the footlights are set to go up. The biggest obstacle to solving the case may be Nora’s obnoxious Aussie boss, Gus Hardwicke—that is, until an even more formidable shadow falls across Nora’s life. It’s Mick Abruzzo’s indomitable mother Bridget O’Halloran who stands firmly in the way of their happily ever after.
