Description Three baby boomer women have been brutally murdered in the tranquil city of Tyler.
Normally a baseball size hailstorm is the wildest thing to hit East Texas.
With no forensic evidence, the only strange clue is that each victim was found clutching seventeen dollars.
The charming town in the piney woods is home to many active retirees, including ex-sisters-in-law and best friends, Rose Ellen and Pearl.
Inspired by their shared fondness for television murder mysteries, the duo decides to try to solve the Seventeen Dollar Murders.
While unraveling the homicides, the amateur detectives become embroiled in battle between Rose Ellen's nemesis, Nelda, and red-hair-from-a-bottle Ruth, at their weekly potluck dinner.
They also witness an apparent shooting at the Ben Wheeler Feral Hog Festival and are victims of a fiery blaze at the Senior Society's Monster Bash.
Are the shooting and arson connected to the murders? Is the perpetrator hiding in plain sight, like the newcomer, retired preacher, Johnny Ray? Could it be Rose Ellen's annoying neighbor, Kenny? What about shameless Nelda? The two boomer/senior sleuths search for answers that will end the Seventeen Dollar Murders and bring peace of mind back to their community.
