Frill Kill

From Laura Childs, bestselling author of the Tea Shop Mysteries, comes Carmela Bertrand -- a New Orleans shop owner who can turn any scrapbook into a treasure and put together the pieces of an unsolved murder...

With Halloween barely a week away, Carmela's friend r Ava throws a fabulous party, complete with a sexy tarot reader named Giovanni. What he doesn't foretell is that on her way home Carmela will find the body of a beautiful model -- and be attacked herself.

Giovanni is there to save her -- but he has a tricky way of dodging certain questions. Ava and Carmela have plenty of other strange leads to follow up on, like the horrifying teeth marks around the victim's neck and the nonhuman hairs found at the crime scene. As the witching hour draws closer, Carmela must discover what's lurking in the shadows of the French Quarter -- or get the fright of her life...

This is #5 in A Scrapbooking Mystery series.
