Synopsis
The author of Killing Cupid &“again provides fans of this splendidly witty mystery series another comical romp&” (Fresh Fiction). For freelance writer Jaine Austen, working behind the scenes at a teen beauty pageant has shown her that sometimes beauty is in the eye of the murderer . . . Teen contestant Taylor Van Sant has a talent for singing, but she can&’t write a song. So her über-pushy stage mom Heather has hired Jaine to pen lyrics the judges will love. Unfortunately, the hotel hosting Miss Teen Queen America is a dump, the cattiness is out of control, and Candace—the perfectly-coiffed, whip-cracking pageant director—is making even Jaine&’s life miserable. When Candace&’s assistant is found bludgeoned to death with a silver tiara, there are more suspects than sequins on a pageant gown—and Heather is first on the list. Taylor begs Jaine to help clear her mom&’s name, but finding the culprit is going to be trickier than walking the stage in stilettos . . . Praise for the Jaine Austen mysteries &“I&’m crazy about Laura Levine&’s mystery series. Her books are so outrageously funny.&” —Joanne Fluke, New York Times bestselling author &“Laura Levine&’s hilarious debut mystery, This Pen for Hire, is a laugh a page (or two or three) as well as a crafty puzzle. Sleuth Jaine Austen&’s amused take on life, love, sex and LA will delight readers. Sheer fun!&” —Carolyn Hart, New York Times bestselling author &“Jaine can really dish it out.&” —The New York Times Book Review &“Fun. Jaine&’s dogged sleuthing and screwball antics will entertain fans of this fizzy series.&” —Publishers Weekly
