At the ungodly hour of 5:45a.m. Dallas has nothing more on her mind than making coffee and prepping the final day's shooting for the summer catalogue. But the surreal display that greets her on the set--a dead, nude model and a wild-eyed, knife-wielding Raul Domingo, the Cuban artist whom Dallas hired for the shoot--isn't her idea of a great fashion spread. And when Raul takes off, leaving Dallas alone at the crime scene, the police peg her as their number one suspect. Now Dallas' only chance of beating a murder rap is to go on the run with the self-proclaimed innocent, Raul, a sexy man who could grace the covers of GQ...or be a deranged killer.

It's an investigation that takes her deep into the underbelly of a glittering domain where models are washed up at twenty-one, selling lipstick is a billion-dollar snake pit, and you're only as good as your last assignment. But she had better be up to the challenge because the murderer has designs to silence Dallas-whose next, fastion tip could be what to wear with cement shoes.
