Three women disappointed in their jobs and love (one's husband cheated on her and is stalling on te divorce, another's husband has a gambling problem and used her nestegg to pay of his debts) decide to go into business together and open up a used bookstore-slash-coffeeshop-slash-winebar (whoever said for a successful business you need to focus and not be all over the place?)

They suffer a lot of vandalism to their cars and to their shop and even an angry yelling from a old lady that owns the diner and is afraid of the competition the bookshop/coffeeshop/winebar will cause. This doesn't turn into much of a mystery - as the unsub just steps up to the women one day and treathens them.

Basically, it takes the author 75 pages to build up a story until the middle part, then skips the middle and wraps up the end in under five pages. It's almost as if she had wanted to write an eighty page story and got flustered when she saw she had almost reach her page limit. That, or she had no idea how the write the middle part. Which I can't really believe because the flips and twists in the build up are quite good.
