Death of a Couturier: An Art Cozy Mystery Thriller - Paperback
by Melanie Jackson (Author)
She's back!
After an absence of almost a decade, Miss Henry returns in a double mystery more than worthy of a comeback. In this two-in-one mystery, Miss Henry is finding her way in the world of Bay Area haute couture where high tech meets high finance. But before she can say 'NSA', she finds herself summoned back to work by her old employer and stranded in an abandoned mansion in the middle of the Nevada desert with a defector, bitter rivals from the agency, and a crazed killer. Forced into finding the most desperate and final of solutions to her interrupted retirement, Juliet has little time to recover before being hurried back to the devolving situation at the fashion house where she has been hired. No one does pressure problem-solving better than Juliet Henry, but grace under pressure doesn't usually include a body-count. Don't miss the latest heart-pounding installment! Once more, Miss Henry finds herself at odds with her ex-employer, the National Security Agency (NSA). Assigned to identify a mole within the agency, her former controllers send Miss Henry to a remote abandoned mansion in the middle of the dessert which is supposedly functioning as a safehouse for a defector. There she must play a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with a hardened killer while her rivals from the agency are being downsized in a permanent way. Juliet is forced back into the life of spy where dirty tricks are required to avoid taking a dirt nap with her former duplicitous colleagues. Amid the fast and furious world of high fashion, changing hemlines and velvet-gloved larceny, Miss Henry must help Esteban find the bloody needle in the pin cushion at the fashion house before someone ends with scissors in their well-clad back. If you've followed Miss Henry's other adventures in the art world, this is a must read. If you're just browsing the series, there's no better time to make her acquaintance.
