Peg Shaw has a gift not just for fending off hot flashes, but also for talking to the dead. One morning while waiting for the caffeine from her coffee to pulse through her veins, she receives a call from her township’s police chief informing her of a hit-and-run that has left a ten-year-old clinging to life in a hospital and her father convinced it was not an accident. Now all Peg has to do is wait for her friends from Deadsville to contact her to help unravel the crime. After her Nana appears from the spirit world and tells her she needs to gather all the facts regarding the hit-and-run crime, Peg is thrust into the midst of another investigation. Helped by Bob, whose murder was recently solved along with his wife, Peg must now decipher a pile of strange letters, determine whether the girl’s father can be trusted, and attempt to piece together a complex mystery that will lead both she and her husband, Andy, down a dangerous path where nothing is certain—except her night sweats. Midlife Chaos shares the continuing tale of a menopausal woman’s journey through a hormonal inferno as she relies on her special abilities and ghostly friends to solve another local crime.
