LET'S GET COZY: DIE JOB - A PREVIEW AND GIVEAWAY

 
  GIVEAWAY ENDED
DIE JOB
A Southern Beauty Shop Mystery
BY LILA DARE
ABOUT THE BOOK: 
After an attempted murder at a supposedly haunted plantation, the ladies of Violetta's beauty salon unravel secrets that link a high school student, a centuries-old crime, and the roots to a very dark mystery. 
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Author of the Southern Beauty Shop mysteries, Lila Dare was born in Georgia and has lived in Alabama, Mississippi, and Virginia.  Although she has never worked in a beauty shop, she frequents salons and likes to tell her stylist:  “Surprise me.”  Maybe that’s why she looks nervous in her photo.  She currently lives west of the Mississippi with her husband, two daughters and dog, and misses Southern cooking and friendliness, but not the humidity.
Laura DiSilverio: "I'm the author of the Swift Investigations and Mall Cop mystery series. After twenty years as an Air Force intelligence officer – serving as a squadron commander, with the National Reconnaissance Office, and at a fighter wing – I retired to parenting and writing full-time. Spying was easier."
....And yes, Laura is also Lila Dare!

I love the quote found at the end of her writing.

“You cannot discover new worlds unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.”

The beauty shop setting should give opportunities to get all sorts of people involved in the mystery---should be fun.
