Great Mystery: Murder, She Wrote: Design For Murder

One of the latest in the "Murder she wrote" mystery book series is called "Design for Murder," (by Jessica Fletcher, Donald Bain and Renee Paley-Bain) and like all of the others in the series, I thoroughly enjoyed it!  5 Out of 5 Stars.   
   It takes place during "fashion week" in NYC and there are of course, deaths and possible murders to solve whenever Jessica Fletcher is around. Another well done mystery that makes you visualize the characters and wonder what happened...  Highly recommended!! - Rob   (Note: The paperback came out in April 2016)



BOOK SUMMARY:  In this mystery in the USA Today bestselling Murder, She Wrote series, Jessica Fletcher visits New York City during fashion week, only to discover someone has rather fatal designs...

Jessica is in Manhattan to attend the debut of a new designer. Formerly Sandy Black of Cabot Cove, the young man has reinvented himself as Xandr Ebon, and is introducing his evening wear collection to the public and—more important—to the industry’s powers-that-be: the stylists, the magazine editors, the buyers, and the wealthy clientele who can make or break him. At the show, the glitz and glamour are dazzling until a young model—a novice, taking her first walk down the runway—shockingly collapses and dies. Natural causes? Perhaps. But when another model is found dead, a famous cover girl and darling of the paparazzi, the fashion world gets nervous.   Two models. Two deaths. Their only connection? Xandr Ebon. Jessica’s crime-solving instincts are put to the test as she sorts through the egos, the conflicts of interest, the spiteful accusations, and the secrets, all the while keeping an amorous detective at arm’s length. But she’ll have to dig deep to uncover a killer. A designer’s career is on the line. And another model could perish in a New York minute.
