St Martin's Paperbacks and Edelweiss let me read this book for review (thabk you). It will be published August 25th.
Lana witnesses an accident at the mall. Two cars back into eqach other. Both women are hotheads and after much shouting one threatens to sue the other. Mildred is claiming her neck was hurt . They take her away in an ambulance. That will add more to her law suit.
Then Lana goes for her hair coloring a day or two later. The two women are there still arguing. They settle them down and the staff gets to work. As the hair is being colored suddenly the power goes out. Then it comes back on. But Mildred won't be going anywhere. She got electrocuted while soaking her feet for a pedicure. Was it an accident or murder?
After Lana's boyfriend (a cop) checks it out he says it couldn't be an accident. There's no way the nail dryer could fallen in on it's own. He also tells her to stay out of it. But Jane is the obvious choice. She was involved in the accident, was the one being sued, and hated Mildred. She was back at the bathroom at the vital time very close to the murder site. But Jane's sister asks Lana to prove Jane didn't do it...
Lana doesn't want to believe Jane would go that far either. So she starts her own investigation. Asking all her questions annoys some. They are insulted she would think they had done it. Some tried to help and made it worse. But she knew she was in trouble when she got caught in the mall bathroom after everyone had left by the killer with the tire iron. Is this the end for Lana?
