Perish by Pedicure
by Nancy J. Cohen

In the midst of cat fights, big egos, and huge hairdos during Florida`s hottest beauty show, salon owner Marla Shore, struggling to deal with personal issues, must clear the name of her former college roommate Georgia Rogers when she is accused of killing Christine Parks, the company director of Luxor Products.

Beauty shows are not usually known for coldblooded murder, but that's exactly the case when Luxor Products company director Christine Parks is found dead in her hotel room. Suspect number one is Marla's college roommate, Georgia Rogers. Marla sets out to clear Georgia's name, and it's soon apparent that the list of people who hated Christine is longer than a pop diva's hair extensions. Behind the dazzling, highplatform hair tricks of Florida's hottest beauty show lurks a dark heart of corruption, greed, and killertakesall ambition. And if Marla isn't careful, she just may end up on the wrong end of a murderer's very skilled hands.
