Purses and Poison

USA Today-Bestselling Author: A fashion model is murdered in this witty mystery starring a “sassy heroine” (Kirkus Reviews).

Fashion sleuth Haley Randolph is back for another murderous romp with the stylish set at Holt's Department Store. . .

When Haley arrives at the Holt employee luncheon and fashion show, she spies a sick server hiding in a back room. Deciding to help out, Haley grabs a uniform. The catered array of food and personalized fruit bouquets from Edible Elegance is a hit until top fashion model Claudia Gray is found dead in the ladies room. Now, it's going to take more than a Chanel sample sale to ease Haley's panic once she learns Claudia's been poisoned. For someone thinks murder is the height of fashion--with Haley's name on the label.
