Former Manhattan fashion buyer Kelly Quinn is turning her grandmother’s outdated consignment shop into her quaint hometown’s hot spot for upscale style—until her second-hand couture makes the scene of an ice-cold crime . . .
With her bottom line looking a little threadbare, Kelly is going all out to promote the Lucky Cove Resale Boutique. She’s counting on Black Friday to recover her start-up expenses—including a website and an advertising blitz. But the publicity is overkill when two warring divas, and one sparkly evening dress, thrust Kelly and her fledgling business into a scandal she can’t afford.
The gorgeous garment came to Kelly from the walk-in closets of Wendy Johnson, one of reality TV’s Long Island Ladies. When Wendy’s former co-star, Diana Delacourte, graces a Christmas gala in the dress that was once her rival’s, a very public catfight ensues. But is Wendy to blame when sequin-clad Diana turns up dead? Dodging the show’s ever-present cameras—and a detective’s stern warnings—Kelly hunts for a killer before the powerful celebrity-suspect makes good on her threats and rips her to shreds . . .
As a fan of cozy mysteries and the Real Housewives franchise, this book was everything to me. Kelly is still trying to keep her inherited consignment shop alive and trying to increase business. Which helps when she is suddenly THE place for the Long Island Ladies, except when one of them dies.
Kelly and her friends and her sleuthing skills are so fascinating to me. I always put myself into these books and if I could solve the crime as well.
Which as someone who doesn’t know anything about consignment shops, this series has been an interesting experience for me. I never knew that there would be so many tips and tricks and intricacies to consigning.
Can’t wait for more of this series!
