Read the first 27 pages and that was enough. An unsympathetic character feeling sorry for herself -- not my kind of mystery. ( )

The ins and outs of the fashion world in London, New York and Milan provide the background to this murder mystery featuring a new sleuth Annie Andersen, an investagative journalist. Kick off your Manolos, and put your feet up whilst you read this frothy crime novel. ( )

Baker is the editor of Britain's Cosmopolitan, so she knows whereof she writes--and she actually writes well. Annie and her colleagues have real inner demons to nip at the heels of their Manolos.
