Death in Velvet

<p><strong>Who doesn't want the latest fashions?</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>But the cutting-edge is a dangerous place to be.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Springtime in Paris 1936.</p><p><br></p><p>When Madame Lafitte invites Ruby Dove to her fashion show how can she and Fina resist?</p><p><br></p><p>Unaware of the gathering storm of greed envy and malice our intrepid sleuths plunge headlong once more from the drama of fashion into the drama of murder. A flighty model an affable cad a pushy buyer a gruff archeologist a wretched assistant an insouciant hotel manager a confident maid and a talented designer all have a motive for murder. And every one of them could have risked the guillotine.</p><p><br></p><p>Faced with too many suspects too many motives and the ticking clock of a police investigation our detectives wine and dine their way through Paris hoping that someone will slip. Perhaps a Freudian slip edged with fashionable lace?</p><p><br></p><p>If you love golden age detection with a dash of history join our fashionable Oxford sleuth-spies in a delightful mystery romp through the 1930s. Ruby and Fina wager that you'll never guess who did it.</p>
