1st in a new series by India Ink (aka: Yasmine Galenorn). Very well done, nice bath and body recipes, quirky characters and a different setting from the typical cozy. I whipped right thorugh this one and loved every minute. I like this series even more than her Chintz & China mysteries. The main character is very likeable and so are the supporting characters, and she doesn't go overboard with the paranormal occurances like some of the Chintz & China ones. There was a hint of the paranormal to this one, but it seemed just right and very believable.

An obnoxious teen age beauty queen is killed at the local bath and body shop in Washington state. Persia feels obligated to investigate since not only did the murder occurred in her aunt's (who raised her)store, but Trevor, an employee who dated the beauty queen, is the prime suspect.
A fun read, complete with beauty and spa tips and recipes.

New series for me. Main character is a transplant from Seattle..complete with tatoos and body piercing and a black belt in martial arts...works for her aunt mixing perfumes for her shop. Slight references to occult, ghosts, etc., but no real overtones of paranormal. Just your plain old murder who done-it. Highly recommended. Enjoy

Highly Enjoyable mystery that I finished in just one sitting! Persia works for her Auntie in a bath store where one of her clients is found murdered. Persia works to reveal the truth in order to clear her employee's name.
This is a fun cozy with a tight plot and very likeable characters. I liked the way the writer uses descriptive writing. The plot moved smoothly and and kept me guessing until the final reveal. Cannont wait to start on the next in the series!

The 1st book in the series. Main character very strong and independent There are a couple of swear words in case there are those who would prefer a book without them. I love Ms. Ink's descriptive writing, especially when she talks about food. As with all cozies this is a quick read.
