Tess Monaghan has been a private investigator for years, and the ultimate calamity has just hit: pregnancy! She can't stand being cooped up due to the conditions of her pregnancy when she could be working on a case. Then one of the dog-walkers she sees out her window every day goes missing. The dog is found, but not the walker. Also, it turns out that the dog-walker's husband has had numerous dead wives and girlfriends before. Though it's mainly to humor a pregnant woman, her friends help her to figure out all of the facts before the man can strike again.
