Recently widowed Emma Diamond has moved to a new neighborhood, next door to her long-time best friend, Sophie. Emma took up bridge after her husband's death, at the urging of her brother and his partner. She is still a beginner but gets involved with her neighbors' games. When the very unpleasant leader of the homeowners' association is murdered during a game, Sophie gets Emma to host some games to help solve the crime.

Emma is a fairly engaging character. She tells the story in the first person. The neighbors are portrayed in a pretty standard fashion. Emma's gay brother is described very matter-of-factly; his sexual preference does not affect the story, so I guess he's just there for some diversity. As a mystery, the story is mediocre. The "bridge tips" mentioned on the cover are for the most basic beginner. (
