Seville, Indiana, has five traffic lights and one interior design firm: Designer Jeans, co-founded by Jean Hastings and her daughter, Jean Jr. Lately they’re finding that the keen eyes needed for plotting color schemes and tracking down flea market treasures also come in handy for interpreting more sinister designs.
Jean is finally getting the recognition she deserves for being a designing woman, and now she’s been recruited by Seville’s newly-formed Fast Flippers—a group dedicated to flipping houses. Their first project is to re-vamp a tired, Victorian mansion and Jean, with the help of family and friends, is determined to restore the painted lady to her former glory in time for the upcoming open house. The crowning design touch is to add a throw pillow embroidered with “Rest in Peace” to the newly constructed window seat.
But when the pillow goes missing, a search begins and turns up not only the pillow—but also a dead Flipper! Now Sunday’s open house is overshadowed by Saturday night’s crime scene—and Jean won’t rest until they’ve searched every nook and cranny for someone with designs on murder.
