If that isn’t enough to give her a bad hair day, handsome Detective Vail suspects Marla of poisoning the woman’s coffee creamer. With her reputation at stake, she decides it's up to her to unmask the killer.While combing Bertha Kravitz’s privileged world for clues, Marla uncovers a tangled web of suspects.

But Marla might have to look closer to home, especially when her janitor vanishes without a trace and she discovers one of her stylists is living a lavish lifestyle. With the detective tightening the net, Marla races to decipher the clues before her own secrets are exposed. If she doesn't solve this case fast, he’ll pin her with a motive and lock her away in a place where bad hair days will become permanent.“Marla the beautician is a delight!”—Tamar Myers, author of the Pennsylvania Dutch Mysteries“Fast-paced and jaunty.” Publishers Weekly “A plot with more tangles than an uncombed perm.” Kirkus Reviews
