Drop Dead

Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn't mind being called "Lady Death." It suits the ice queen persona she's cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn't hesitate to run the obituary - only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine's screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy. She's been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot has also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal. Intrigued, Wes goes to the source to learn more - only to discover Nadine had the exact same idea... and the infuriating woman isn't willing to respect dibs.
