A call from Stella Hardesty's little sister brings the news that Stella's step-nephew, Chip, has been threatened with serious bodily harm if he doesn't settle his unpaid gambling debts. Stella makes the drive to Chip's home in Wisconsin, only to walk in on a wee-hours dismemberment. Chip and his Russian girlfriend, Natalya, insist the man was left, already dead, on their porch. Suspicious but compelled to help family, Stella tracks down other suspects, including the deceased's business partner, a purveyor of black-market Botox, and a jilted violist. Matters are complicated by the unexpected arrival of BJ Broderson, who has picked the worst possible time to pursue his amorous intentions toward Stella. Meanwhile, thoughts of Sheriff "Goat" Jones make Stella blush and wonder where, and with whom, she will spend her fifty-first birthday.

A Bad Day for Mercy is a terrific addition to this incredibly original and entertaining series. For those who haven't yet discovered the wonder of Sophie Littlefield, it's high time to join the fun

Sturdy & easy to move around
Its solid & sturdy. It does exactly what it’s supposed to. You have the option to fill it up with water or sand , I choose water. It holds the umbrella in place. The wheels and handle make it really easy to move around, which is a huge plus. It fits perfectly and feels very well made. Great addition for my pool area!

Heavy-Duty Base with Convenient Mobility
This umbrella base does exactly what it’s supposed to—keeps the umbrella stable while still being easy to move around when needed. Once filled with water/sand, it feels solid and secure even on slightly windy days, which gives peace of mind. The built-in wheels are a standout feature. Moving the base across the patio is smooth and doesn’t require much effort. The handle placement is well thought out, making repositioning quick and hassle-free. Overall, it’s a great balance of stability and convenience. Highly recommend if you want a sturdy base without sacrificing mobility.

The base that fits!
Finally, easy to put together and the right fit just before summer. It was extra windy so I put extra weight.
