But when Dan is shot dead, Nancy finds herself at the center of a murder case that could be ripped from the pages of her novels.

I adore this show

This show has completely gotten me through 2023-2024 (apologies that I didn't discover earlier, Will, Jason, Sean and Tracy (Tracie?). I only dislike the Happy Egg commercial. It is not Will’s wonderful voice, but I feel he must have been “compelled” to say “orange yolk” too many times. Once is enough.

A Compliment to Will

From the person who said that Will should speak less, nice job to Will for being an actual listener and letting John Williams interview be one of the best.

Music lover

The John Williams episode was so so so good! Thanks for getting such a variety of people to interview. Did not expect to see him on here and really loved it.
