Synopsis

A designer-bag addict investigates death at a department store in this mystery with "lots of humor and style" from a USA Today bestselling author (Booklist).

Haley Randolph is always ready to go to any lengths to get the latest Louis Vuitton. Unfortunately for Haley, her life goes from glam to grim when her passion for fashion outlasts her credit cards, and she's forced to work at Holt's—a mid-market department store. Looking for a bit of shopping inspiration, Haley sneaks into the stock room to get a first glimpse of Holt's one-of-a-kind selection of handbag styles. But instead of the newest Vuitton, Haley discovers her boss is the ultimate fashion victim.

According to the security tapes, Haley was the only person in the stockroom before, during, and after the murder. With everyone in the store eyeing her like last season's Marc Jacobs, Haley turns to the hunky Ty Cameron, who heads up the store's loss prevention unit, to help her investigate the murder. Now her knowledge of hot trends will take her from the sales floor to the boardroom to the gritty streets of LA's Garment District as she searches for a killer with impeccable fashion taste . . .

This book is hilarious! The main character is a witty, materialistic, narcissistic and kind of shallow shopaholic that seriously needs help managing her money, her priorities and her obsession with designer handbags. Naturally I could not relate to her at all. However, I do not expect to relate to ev......more

Goodreads review by Genji

What a stupid novel, what a totally unlikeable, lazy, bad-work-ethic main character. Wow - really disappointed. I got to chapter 3 and when she got upset because her supervisors were going to watch tapes that might include her practically mapping in the stock room when she was supposed to be attempt......more
