Who shot Alabama Congressman Winstead Colmer to death in the Oval Office of the White House? With all the windows and doors bolted from within, it appeared to be a suicide. But too many people around Capitol Hill were breathing relieved sighs over the banking subcommittee chairman's timely demise for his passing to be so neatly dismissed. With FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover mucking up the investigation, feisty First Lade Eleanor Roosevelt decides to try her hand - taking time from her busy schedule to solve a rather nasty puzzle that could scandalize the country and cause irreparable harm to her husband's New Deal administration.

A good blend of history, mystery and cozy.
