MURDER AT FIRST BLUSH

Marketta Davis was Harbor Bay’s golden girl until the Chicago Art Institute sent her packing. She returns to her hometown, determined to succeed by operating a beauty emporium stocked with upscale products. Unfortunately, on opening night a grisly corpse litters the alleyway of her store. Marky and her partner Gemma Reid team up to save their business and their lives by finding the culprit.

. . . 

“What fun! As a sleuth, Marky hits the mark. And her sidekick, Gemma, is a real gem. Life is grim for the town’s former golden girl, but Arlene Kay offers up a rich and lively journey home. This high energy story streaks along and the ending is unexpected and satisfying.”
