Produktbeschreibung

Now an e-book! The ninth book in the popular Crime of Fashion Mystery Series. A HAUNTED SHAWL, A PSYCHIC WHO FAINTS AT VISIONS OF DANGER AND A FRAZZLED BRIDE TO BE threaten to derail Stella Lake's bachelorette party. Maid of honor and BFF Lacey Smithsonian is smack dab in the middle of the chaos. Lacey must test her ExtraFashionary Perception to catch a villain who has vowed that nobody at this wedding will live happily every after.

Washington, D.C., fashion reporter Lacey Smithsonian has always believed clothes can be magical, but she's never thought they can be cursed. Until now. Lacey's best friend, Stella, is finally getting married, and at her bachelorette party, fellow bridesmaid-and fortune-teller-Marie Largesse arrives with a stunning Russian shawl. A shawl, Marie warns, that can either bless or curse the wearer. When a party crasher who mocks the shawl is found dead the next day, the other guests fear the curse has been unleashed. But Lacey has her doubts, and she must employ all her Extra-Fashionary Perception to capture a villain who has vowed that nobody at this wedding will live happily ever after.... Reviews "Like fine wine that gets better with age, Veiled Revenge is the best book yet in this fabulous series." (Dru's Book Musings) "An intriguing plot, fun but never too insane characters, and a likable and admirable heroine all combine to create a charming and well-crafted mystery." (Kings River Life Magazine) "This amazing cozy mystery could be quite dignified one moment, only to slip into a hilariously goofy spoof on its characters the next, or get me humming the theme to a James Bond movie at the turn of a page. It was one of those really fun mysteries that kept me turning the pages, albeit slowly. It's the type I simply wanted to savor rather than race to the end. This is one killer female sleuth I fell in love with ... instantly!" (Feathered Quill.)

Autorenporträt

Ellen Byerrum is a novelist, a playwright, a reporter, a former Washington, D.C., journalist, and a graduate of private investigator school in Virginia. Her Crime of Fashion Mystery series features a savvy, stylish female sleuth named Lacey Smithsonian, a reluctant fashion reporter who solves crimes with fashion clues. The series is set in Washington D.C., which Smithsonian lovingly refers to as "The City That Fashion Forgot."

Publisher's Weekly has called Byerrum's writing "as smooth as fine-grade cashmere."

In addition to mysteries, Byerrum has also produced her first suspense thriller, The Woman in the Dollhouse. It introduces us to a young woman, Tennyson Claxton, whose mind holds the mingled memories of two very different women. Best Thrillers calls this page turner "an ingeniously crafted psychological thriller that bewitches on page one and continues to mesmerize until its shocking conclusion." Byerrum anticipates exploring Tennyson's continuing odyssey in a future novel.
