Shopping meets suspense in this enticing new cocktail of sassy-smart sleuthing featuring a spunky decorator who can hunt down furniture—and murder.
As a tireless mom of three, the doting spouse of a surgeon, and a talented interior designer to the stars, Lacy Fields can always find the perfect piece to finish a living room—or an investigation.
When Lacy’s beautiful young client Cassie Crawford drops dead after a sip of tea in her newly decorated LA penthouse, Lacy once again finds herself in the midst of murder. She’s stunned when suspicion lands on her own best friend, hot Hollywood casting agent Molly Archer—whose “friendship” with Cassie’s billionaire mogul husband brings her to the attention of the LAPD. Lacy will have to set aside seeking antiques to hunt down a dangerous killer. But this time, she’s not alone. Sleuthing becomes a family affair.
From a rough-and-tumble biker with a heart of gold to a relentless university fund-raiser, Lacy will follow every one of Cassie Crawford’s precarious footsteps in order to clear her best friend’s name. But by doing so, will she put her own family in the path of a desperate killer?

      At the start of Kaplan’s fun, breezy second mystery to feature ditzy L.A. interior designer Lacy Fields (after 2007’s Looks to Die For
      ), Lacy’s latest chic client, Cassie Crawford, drops dead while inspecting the decor of the posh penthouse Cassie and her new husband, billionaire Roger Crawford, were planning to buy. Cassie, it turns out, made a fatal mistake by drinking a bottle of arsenic-laced Japanese tea from the penthouse’s Sub-Zero refrigerator. To Lacy’s dismay, the fingerprints of her casting agent pal, Molly Archer, who’s been schmoozing with Roger, are found on the fridge, making Molly a top suspect. But when Billy Mann, Cassie’s biker friend, is murdered after confiding in Lacy that Cassie feared for her life, LAPD Det. Brian Wilson decides Lacy makes a better suspect. While Lacy’s Dolce & Gabbana shoes and her linen Calvin Klein shirt suffer damage near story’s end in a tight fix Edgar Allan Poe might have devised, Lacy’s blithe, la-di-dah spirit remains unscathed.
