About
Katherine Sparling Pew Fitzsimmons, a wealthy seventy-two year old Palm Beach socialite (twice widowed), disappears during the annual White Ibis Ball, a festive charity gala for the Gold Coast chapter of the IBS Wellness Foundation, a group globally committed to defeating irritated bowel syndrome. The only clues to her disappearance are a beaded clutch, her martini glass, and a broken rose-colored tab of Ecstasy found on the banks of a koi pond. Shore divers are summoned by the police to search the pond; other than numerous algae-covered champagne bottles, the rusty keys to a 1967 Coupe DeVille, and a single size-5 Louis Vuitton cross-pump identified as belonging to Kiki, no body is found. Fay Alex Riptoad (of the ethanol and hedge-fund Riptoads), co-founder of the Potus Pussies (shortened to Potussies for media purposes), of which Kiki Pew was a member, immediately contacts the local police chief, who assures her that no resources would be spared in the effort to solve the case. Kiki's body is later discovered in a concrete grave.
