Poisoned at the Party

Veronica Talbot is a force to be reckoned with and will steamroll anyone who stands in her way without batting an eye-including her mild-mannered husband Charles and her teenaged daughter Tricia, who would rather spend time with the housekeeper than her own mommy dearest.

Veronica's harsh tactics drive the VP of the Creative Concepts advertising firm to quit and land Veronica in his spot, exactly as she'd planned. Veronica's beleaguered colleagues are used to her constant rants and haranguing, and they brace themselves for the worst when she takes the helm. But when Veronica and Charles throw a party at their house in the country celebrating her promotion, the whole office dutifully attends, fearful for the future of their jobs.

The festivities come to a screeching halt when Charles finds Veronica dead on the loveseat in their study. Her death is initially ruled a heart attack until the medical examiner discovers that Veronica was murdered, and Detective Frank Logan is called in to investigate. With a house full of people with the opportunity and motive to kill the awful woman, Detective Logan must sift through all the evidence to determine who poisoned Veronica at her own party.
