Jenny is the promotions director of a large shopping mall in an unnamed Canadian city.
Book has a lot of administrivia about running a mall. A shooting murder occurs during a pumpkin-carving promotion.
Good-guy characters are likeable. I thought the killer and motivation could have been developed more. Probably an editor deleted an explanation of Jenny's bad reaction to a liver dinner. (Liver dinner as in Betty Crocker, not Hannibal Lecter.)
Would like to see one character, Tiny, developed in a sequel.
