Mystery Woman Sleuth | Mystery Cozy

When society maven Mary Lee Miller asks party planner Presley Parker to organize a murder mystery party as a fundraiser for a local San Francisco museum, Presley rounds up her crew of friends to make the party the social event of the year. She struggles to bring the event, being held in the historic de Young Museum, together. Presley finds herself distracted by Mary Lee's constant interference and having to referee heated arguments between Mary Lee and her son Corbin over his latest girlfriend, Presley's best bud Delicia.

When Mary Lee is killed during the party, and the evidence points to Delicia, Presley puts aside her party planning expertise in favor of her sleuthing abilities to try and sort out the puzzling crime before her best friend ends up as the who in the who-dun-it.

HOW TO CRASH A KILLER BASH is Penny Warner's second book in her Party Planning Mystery series. Once again she delights her audience with colorful and lively characters, intriguing suspense, and fun party planning tips. If you're looking for a light-hearted, fast-moving story with enough polish and pizazz to keep your interest popping to the very last page, look no further than this party-hearty book by Penny Warner.

SUMMARY

The de Young Museum in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park is throwing a murder mystery party to raise money, and the notorious yet benevolent philanthropist Mary Lee Miller wants Presley Parker to host it.

When Mary Lee is found dead with a fake dagger in her chest, Delicia--Presley's friend and Corbin's girlfriend--is the key suspect. Presley begins sleuthing to clear her friend and solve the mounting murders, only to find someone wants this life of the party dead.
