High Style and Homicide

Interior design meets ulterior motive when murder strikes the family of a leading light in home décor . . .

 

Never in her wildest dreams did interior decorator Meg Barrett think she’d get the chance to team up with the iconic Jessica Sterling. A do-it-yourself dynamo, Jessica’s Dahlia Lane Farms brand has swept the country, and Meg is thrilled to discover she’s just as charming and gracious in person as she is on TV. But tragedy strikes when her beloved brother is killed in a hit-and-run, and when the evidence points to foul play, Meg vows to help Jessica by investigating. 

 

It doesn’t take long for Meg to figure out that not everyone working with Jessica has her best interests at heart, and she’s certain that Jessica’s brother was killed for something he knew about one of them. And then another body turns up, and it’s clear that someone is going to desperate lengths to protect their secret. With Jessica still reeling from her loss, Meg puts herself in harm’s way to unearth the secret and catch the killer—before they can carry out their murderous designs on her . . .
