When a local art shop owner is murdered, Jessica Fletcher is surprised to once again be working alongside her old friend MI-6 agent Michael Haggerty to solve the case in the newest mystery in this USA Today bestselling series.When Nelson Penzell, co-owner of a local art and treasure store in Cabot Cove, is murdered, the nail tech from Jessica Fletchers favorite beauty parlor is the main suspect. After all, shes the one who ran out of the store screaming, covered in blood, and holding the murder weapon. Jessica is positive that despite the circumstances, Coreen cant possibly be guilty, and is determined to prove it. When Michael Haggerty, handsome MI-6 agent and Jessicas old friend, is caught snooping around the victim’s home, its quickly apparent to her that she was right. Nelson has always had a bit of a reputation for being a rake, but Haggerty is sure his sins go far beyond what anyone in town imagined. If she wants to clear Coreens name, Jessica will have to work alongside Michael to find out who killed Nelson-and maybe help bust a crime ring in the process.

Chapter One Jessica, I really think you should let me fluff up the top. My favorite hairdresser, Loretta Spiegel, used her fingers and the handle of a round-headed brush to push my ash blond hair about an inch higher than I normally wear it. Then she turned the easy-to-rotate salon chair I was sitting in from right to left and back again so I could view it from all angles in the mirror in front of me. No, thank you, Loretta. I am happy with my hair the way it is. Then I added, At least for the time being, to soften the blow. Loretta and I had some version of this same conversation nearly every time I came in for a trim. She kept trying to make what she called small changes to my hairstyle, which I was sure would eventually lead to major changes. My short hair, layered with just enough waves to have an agreeable, feminine look, suited me perfectly. I found it easy to manage, a boon when I am traveling, what with book tours, research trips, and my favorite jaunts-visits to family and friends. Although I resisted every suggestion Loretta made, that never stopped her from making them. Loretta pulled a long, pointed stainless steel hair clip off a cardboard placard that was standing upright on her countertop and snapped it open to section off the side of my hair she was ready to cut. If you say so, Jessica, but I wish youd let me make a small change here and there. I think it would give you a more modern look. My longtime friend and neighbor Ideal Molloy was tucked under a pink domed hair dryer a few feet behind us. She was wrapped in a kimono-style smock, her dark hair covered with rows of plastic curlers and a bouffant hairnet. Ideal raised her voice as if not sure we could hear her over the whirring of the dryer. More modern. Thats exactly right, Loretta. Thank you. Coreen Wilson, the salons manicurist, had worked as Lorettas assistant since she was a student in high school. Now she stood in front of Ideal, holding open a plastic nail polish display case filled with inch-high bottles of lacquer of every color of the rainbow, along with a few odd shades I couldnt identify. Coreen ran one hand through her honey blond curls while she waited patiently for Ideal to look over the entire selection and then choose her usual deep red polish. Shed said it so many times, even I knew the name-Dark Cherry. So when Ideal veered off, we were all taken by surprise. Loretta, thats exactly what I want. A more modern look for my fingernails. Maybe this time Ill even do my toes. Should I go with royal blue or stripes, or something bolder? Every tim
