Mary DiNunzio, a lawyer in an all-woman Philadelphia law firm, investigates the death during World War II of Amadeo Brandolini, an Italian immigrant who supposedly killed himself at an internment camp in Montana.

Interspersed throughout the story is much blind-date matchmaking to try and find the young widow another love. There are some very funny parts, but it's quite predictable and the "surprise" ending is a little unbelievable...or at least the way it was brought into the open was.

This was an entertaining read, but not an enthralling one. Plus what's with the title? I can't relate it to the book at all....
