#MURDER WEARS A LITTLE BLACK DRESS by Debra Sennefelder

Posted on January 22, 2019 by 

The start of a new series and new author for me. I will read this author again. It has been a while since I have read any Chic Lit but this book has traces of it along with a mystery and possible paranormal element. The cover is attractive and leads you into the tale.
Kelly Quinn has inherited her Grandmother consignment shop and has plans to change it an upscale boutique. There is some disagreement with the present staff. Kelly has planned a big sale to remove merchandise and bring new items. A stranger walks into the shop and tries on the black dress and has a vision that a woman was wearing the dress when she committed a MURDER. Before long rumors that the shop there is a MURDER DRESS and the building is haunted. This stops the business and Kelly Lee to see the Physic and finds a MURDER victim. Kelly needs answers to several questions in order to save her shop. She does some silly things as Kelly tries to find her answers. It there a MURDER DRESS? Is the woman a physic or a fraud?

Posted on January 22, 2019 by 

This is a new author for me and I understand it is the end of this series. I was lost with the characters as I was unable to connect with them. Regular readers will enjoy the book.

They managed to visit an elder person in a retirement home to look for some missing letters. Flavia meets a couple of missionaries from Africa. Her cousin Undine plays an important role in the case. I recommend this book.
