Romance Suspense

Fire up the flat iron and break out the bullet-proof blow drier, because Marla Shore--the sassy, South Florida beauty salon owner with a knack for fixing hair and finding trouble--is back...

Beauty shows are not usually known for cold-blooded murder, but that's exactly the case when Luxor Products company director Christine Parks is found dead in her hotel room--facedown in a foot bath. Suspect number one is Marla's college roommate, Georgia Rogers, who got Marla the job working behind the scenes at the beauty show.

It doesn't take long into Marla's investigation to discover that everyone who worked with Christine had a reason to hate her. From serial cheating to indulging in blackmail, threats, lawsuits, bad investment advice and worse, she was a walking Bad Hair Day, and the list of possible suspects is longer than a pop diva's hair extensions. And when a model with top- secret information for Marla turns up dead at the Russian baths, things go from bad to worse in a hurry. Behind the thumping house music and dazzling, high-platform hair tricks of Florida's hottest beauty show, something very ugly is going down, something that goes beyond polish and style to the dark heart of corruption, greed, and killer- takes-all ambition of the beauty biz. If Marla isn't careful, she just may end up on the wrong end of a murderer's very skilled hands...
