When big-city businesswoman Priss Porter returns to town with a body in her trunk, she expects Stella to dispose of it for her. She's even got a snapshot of Stella doing what she does best—curing woman-beaters by the use of force—in case Stella needs convincing. But Stella refuses to cooperate, only to hear later that Priss has gone missing. Stella is implicated when Sheriff "Goat" Jones discovers a scarf she left behind.
Since I've found the previous two Stella novels to be must reads, A Bad Day for Scandal is most definitely on my list. You can find more information and an excerpt at Sophie's website. Then take Kirkus' advice:
"Fans of quirky mysteries need to grab a Littlefield pronto."
