Beschreibung

Abby, the owner of Goldilocks Hair Salon, is shocked when she finds blood at the entrance of her salon. She has a soft spot for a homeless woman named Rose, who she wants to rehabilitate. But Abby fears the blood found at her salon may belong to Rose, since the woman slept there and now has disappeared.
 
Determined to find Rose, Abby becomes an amateur sleuth, but is discouraged by Jack, a Daytona Beach Police Sergeant. While their relationship blossoms, in the wings is the handsome neighbor and fireman Mark, who has a knack for being present whenever Abby gets into trouble.
 
Relationships become complicated when a young employee becomes pregnant and one hairdresser doesn't view Rose quite the same as Abby. Despite intrigue, danger and being stalked, Abby maintains her bright outlook and wisdom. Readers will enjoy the times when some characters from the author's 50-Plus Condo series visit the salon.
 
The first book in the Daytona Beach Mysteries series, 'Haircut and Highlights' is a mystery involving love of humanity, coming of age and romance, with a touch of faith.

    Hollis Brannigan, newly arrived in Los Angeles, left Kansas for the bright lights of Tinseltown—but working as a personal shopper for a prestigious concierge service isn't a job she ever wanted. Life only gets worse when she's assigned to D-list clients: fading Hollywood stars, aging industry insiders, new clients with no name value, and most any nut case who stumbles into the office with money to pay their outrageous fee. 
     
     
     
    But Hollis doesn't intend to spend her days making other people's dreams come true. She's focused on getting a position in the investigations department. She gets a chance to prove herself by posing as an investigator for a missing dog case—but when she arrives at a stately Hancock Park mansion, she learns there's no missing dog. Instead, she's shown a secret room, a handgun, a vintage Louis Vuitton suitcase stuffed with cash, and is told she has to find a killer. 
     
     
     
    Now shopping for a murderer among LA's exclusive shops and luxury boutiques, Hollis discovers scandals, lies, broken dreams, and enough old secrets to fill a Black Friday shopping bag. But suspects and evidence are as rare as a Rodeo Drive discount outlet, and a cunning killer may be much closer than she thinks. Somehow, she must find the murderer before her shopping days—and maybe her life—are over!

    A thought-provoking mystery unfolds in a small coastal Dutch town after a host’s private party ends in murder.A French professor is staying in a coastal Dutch town while on a lecture tour—but when his host is murdered, he’s held for questioning as the prime suspect. Maigret’s assistance is requested, so he travels to the northeast of Holland, where he meets the attendees of a small private gathering the week before: Beetje, the coquettish daughter of a local farmer; Madame Popinga, the victim’s wife; Any Van Elst, her sister and a prospective lawyer; and Cornelius, a student at the Naval College; among a few others. While some are content blaming the outsider in their midst, Maigret senses something more enigmatic at play. Why does Conrad Popinga walk Beetje home every night she visits? What does the local crook Oosting know—and why was his cap found in the Popingas’ bathroom, one of the only rooms that overlooks the crime scene? In a town this small, Maigret knows its inhabitants know more than they claim.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
