Andie leaves her hectic ulcer producing job and lifestyle. She comes home to Louisville when she hears that her Aunt Weeby has broken her leg and will need some assistance for awhile. Aunt Weeby best friend Mona runs the Shop-Til-U-Drop Network, and she offers Andie a job as the head gemologist and host of the gem segment of her network.
Andie takes the job. She finds out on her first day that her co-host Max knows nothing about gems, and he drives her crazy. Mona and Aunt Weeby think they are a match made in heaven, but Andie is seeing red, and it isn't the Rubies.
A gentlemen from Andie's former job shows up bearing a parrot as a gift and he winds up dead in the vault belonging to the network. He also brought an invitation to visit the mines where the most expensive rubies are produces. Who would want to kill Mr. Pak and for what reason?
It was a pretty good story. I liked the interjection of humor and the tension between Andie and Max.
This is the first book in the series, and it was a very enjoyable read. I like her Home Decor series a little better, but this was still an fun mystery to read.
