Mystery Woman Sleuth
Lydia McKenzie is an artist whose medium is the camera.
She’s having her first one-woman show. It is a series that
ties to actual murders committed in the city’s past. Her
method is to find a model—someone who can match in a general
way the actual female victim—and pose her in the clothes and
position in which the actual victim was found. The night of
her showing, however, is disappointing; the owner of the
gallery makes her pay for the invitations down to the
stamps, hang the whole show herself, and rush for the usual
wine and snacks. But what happens next is much worse: two
plainclothes policemen shut down the event and take Lydia in
for questioning. A young woman whom she knew well, and who
was the model in one of her photographs, has been murdered.
Worried that the police aren’t doing what they should, Lydia
and another friend set out to find the killer.The winner of
the celebrated St. Martin’s Minotaur/Malice Domestic Best
First Traditional Mystery Novel Competition,Posed for
Murderpresents a snapshot of crime in a lasting and
memorable story.
