"A novel"--Jacket.

Series information from publisher's website.

"Finlay Donovan and her nanny/partner-in-crime Vero have not always gotten along with Finlay's elderly neighbor, Mrs. Haggerty, the community busybody and president of the neighborhood watch. But when a dead body is discovered in her backyard, Mrs. Haggerty needs their help. At first a suspect, Mrs. Haggerty is cleared by the police, but her house remains an active crime scene. She has nowhere to go--except Finlay's house, right across the street. Finlay and Vero have no interest in getting involved in another murder case--or sacrificing either of their bedrooms. After all, they've dealt with enough murders over the last four months to last a lifetime and they both would much rather share their beds with someone else. When the focus of the investigation widens to include Finlay's ex-husband Steven though, Finlay and Vero are left with little choice but to get closer to Mrs. Haggerty and uncover her secrets"--
