Join southern sleuth Marla Shore on another hair-raising adventure as she lands a case close to home in this lighthearted cozy mystery.

Hairstylist and amateur sleuth Marla Shore lands a case close to home when her animal-loving neighbor-a man aptly named Goat-disappears, leaving his pets alone and a dead body in his master bedroom. Even more disturbing is the pattern of highlights Marla notes in the victim's hair. She recognizes the signature technique of her former mentor, master stylist Cutter Corrigan. Soon she's untangling clues that link Goat, Cutter, and the unsavory pet fur trade to her own past. Someone at her former beauty school has a hair-raising secret worth killing to keep.

"Full of twists and turns, great characters, and an interesting setting. Who could ask for more?" Denise Swanson, author of the Scumble River mystery series
