Produktbeschreibung

Halloween is coming and fashion reporter Lacey Smithsonian's normally staid Washington, D.C., looks more like a costume party every day. The season has lots of tricks and treats up its sleeve for Lacey in this third outing of the Crimes of Fashion Mysteries. With a messy murder case in the hothouse world of haute couture just behind her, and a romantic getaway weekend just ahead, Lacey promises her new boyfriend she'll stay out of trouble. For once. But trouble follows Lacey like static cling on a silk skirt. Her crazy fashion beat brings her a hot interview with Amanda Manville, reality TV makeover success story turned Supermodel Diva From Hell. Amanda has dangerous secrets ¬¬-- and a scary and elusive stalker. As if that weren't enough, Lacey's mother and sister are in town, bent on doing an extreme makeover on Lacey's entire life. Lacey steps stylishly into the path of drive-by shootings, speeding stolen cars (her own!), and the infamous office jinx. And she learns that sometimes makeovers can be murder . Lacey's Fashion Bite: "Life is not a dress rehearsal! You're the star of your own life, aren't you? So dress like the glamorous leading lady, not the understudy or a drab extra in a dreary foreign film."

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 stars a savvy, stylish female sleuth named Lacey Smithsonian. Lacey is a reluctant fashion reporter in Washington D.C., which she lovingly refers to as "The City Fashion Forgot."

Two of Byerrum's Crime of Fashion novels, Killer Hair and Hostile Makeover, have been filmed for the Lifetime Movie Network.

The Woman in the Dollhouse is Byerrum's first suspense thriller. It introduces us to a young woman, Tennyson Claxton, whose mind seems to hold the mingled memories of two very different women. Her past is full of questions, her present is filled with deception and danger, and her future is a blank page-unless she can discover who she really is. Byerrum anticipates exploring Tennyson's continuing odyssey in a future novel.

Byerrum has also penned a middle-grade mystery, The Children Didn't See Anything, the first in a projected series starring the precocious twelve-year-old Bresette twins.

Under her pen name Eliot Byerrum, she has published two plays with Samuel French, A Christmas Cactus and Gumshoe Rendezvous.
