Synopsis

After hairdresser Daisy Thorne finds her missing scissors in a customer's back, she becomes the prime suspect in a murder . . .

When Ooh La La regular Mel Haverstock left the hair salon that morning, no one expected it would be her final parting. But when Daisy closes shop Saturday night, she finds her client dead as the mullet cut. Homicide is back in style in the quiet village of Edgemead in Surrey, England. But who would want to harm a hair on poor Mel's head?

Suspicions higher than a beehive pile on Daisy when it's revealed that she and Mel had tangled back in high school, and DNA evidence seems to color her guilty. Handsome DCI Paul McGuinness gives the hairstylist new accessories—a lovely pair of silver handcuffs. To clear her name, Daisy must highlight the real backstabber, or she'll end up shaving heads in the prison barbershop.

Goodreads review by Kim on March 23, 2021

Death at the Salon by Louise R. Innes was an excellent, fast read. Some cozies seem to get bogged down a bit with the protagonist continually going over the suspects and clues again and again, and while there was a bit of that, Innes kept the page number down so it was perfect for me. As I’ve said b......more

Goodreads review by Megan on April 11, 2021

This is a great cozy mystery and while I really enjoyed the story I didn't connect all that well with the characters, I think I need to go back and read the first one. It can be read as a stand alone but I felt like I was missing some depth. There was a lot about this book I enjoyed though. I loved......more
