Shear Murder

A wedding turns deadly when hairstylist Marla Shore discovers a dead body under the cake table in this killer cozy mystery. Weddings always make Marla Shore shed a tear of joy, especially when she attends her friend Jill's affair as a member of the bridal party. Marla's own nuptials are weeks away, and she's been busy juggling bickering relatives, building a new house with her fiancé, and expanding her hair salon. The South Florida stylist is following her to-do list just fine until an unexpected event unravels her carefully laid plans. At Jill's wedding reception, Marla discovers the matron of honor--Jill's sister Torrie--dead under the cake table, a knife embedded in her chest. Unfortunately, Jill has a strong motive for murder. She and Torrie co-owned a piece of commercial property, and they'd disagreed on whether to sell or lease the land. Now with Torrie out of the way, Jill's decision can rule. Or can it? Her relatives may have some say on who gets control, meaning Jill can't trust any of them. Torrie knew secrets about her colleagues, too, things they wouldn't want revealed. But when Marla learns one of those secrets involves Jill's past, she wonders if her friend is truly innocent. She'd better untangle the snarl of suspects and iron out the clues before the killer highlights her as the next victim.
