One of the savviest single urbanites ever to take up
sleuthing and still look great, Bailey Weggins made her
smashing debut in Kate White's If Looks Could Kill, a
dishy and delectable New York Times bestseller and the first
"Reading with Ripa" Book Club selection. Now the Gloss
magazine true crime writer returns in a story of high style
and low murder that goes behind the salons and saunas of a
ritzy country spa to uncover... A Body to Die For
After her last adventure, Bailey Weggins is one
tired reporter in need of R & R. So when an old family
friend invites her for a free weekend at the Cedar Inn in
rural Massachusetts, she jumps at the chance to leave
Manhattan for some major pampering.
At the elegant
mid-nineteenth-century hideaway, with its Asian-inspired
spa, Bailey is soon luxuriating to the hypnotic sound of
water spilling over stones and the soothing scent of
green-tea candles. Yet mayhem is mere steps away, as Bailey
discovers when she literally stumbles across a corpse
wrapped mummy-style in a treatment room. Suddenly, her
time-out is transformed into a full-tilt murder
investigation. Bailey hadn't expected to meet anyone other
than socialites slathering their cellulite with shea butter,
but now she's dealing with a list of suspects dirtier than a
mud bath: a spurned lover, a shady husband, and a group of
employees who seem to be hiding something. And against her
better judgement, she can't seem to keep her own hands off
the sexy homicide detective assigned to the case.
Desparate to help her mother's friend, the owner of
the spa, Bailey will find herself chasing clues across state
lines just as another death sweeps her into the sights of a
vicious killer. And this time, the body in the mud wrap
could be her own.
