Squirrels

Not for the squeamish!

As unlucky humans meet hideous deaths, novelist Ellie Peters comes to town, just looking for peace and quiet to inspire her next light romance. When she finds a body in the woods, she becomes a police witness and has to stay in Harton's Crossing.
The arrival of her wealthy snobbish fiancé complicates matters, especially when she meets Luke, a handsome wildlife service agent. When Marvin is horribly killed by vengeful squirrels, his mother arrives to make trouble double. Luke and Ellie team up to find the cause behind the squirrel attacks. The locals are tired of getting torn apart by ravenous rodents, and the mayor organizes a hunting party.
Meanwhile, peanut plant owner Beverly Blake has her own problems, as environmentalists protest deforestation. She takes out her frustrations on her geeky but capable assistant, Charles. Also, her past comes back to smack her in the head as someone is trying to blackmail her. Beverly is in for a fight, as she struggles to save her reputation and her life, but her secret crimes will not let her go. Caught up in the action, Luke and Ellie race against time to solve the mystery of the murderous manic squirrels, stop disaster and save the town of Harton's Crossing.
