Description

In the second installment of the new Daisy Thorne Mystery series by Louise R. Innes, after Daisy, a hairdresser and owner of Ooh La La Beauty Salon, finds her missing scissors in a customer's back, she becomes the prime suspect in a murder...

When Ooh La La regular Mel Haverstock left the hair salon that morning, no one expected it would be her final parting. But when Daisy closes shop Saturday night, she finds her client dead as the mullet cut. Homicide is back in style in the quiet village of Edgemead in Surrey, England. But who would want to harm a hair on poor Mel's head?

Suspicions higher than a beehive pile on Daisy when it's revealed that she and Mel had tangled back in high school, and DNA evidence seems to color her guilty. Handsome DCI Paul McGuinness gives the hairstylist new accessories--a lovely pair of silver handcuffs. To clear her name, Daisy must highlight the real backstabber, or she'll end up shaving heads in the prison barbershop.

Daisy takes center stage in a murder investigation!
Murder most foul - and at Daisy's salon no less. Who is responsible, and why? As the list of suspects grows, can the DCI clear Daisy's name, or will she take the fall for the dastardly deed? With twists and turns in the plot, this is a fun cozy read!

Another good mystery featuring Daisy Thorne, salon owner. I love the character, Daisy, she is so lady like as she goes about solving murders. I read an ARC of this book and am voluntarily reviewing. After finding a client stabbed with her scissors outside her salon after closing time Daisy funds it necessary to investigate the murder to prove herself not involved. Daisy has had a fledgling romance with the investigating officer and helped with a previous investigation. Daisy uses her keen observation skills and knowledge of the local community to help solve the mystery. I really like that Daisy and the DCI are respectful of each other, even as he has to arrest her on a murder charge and she keeps investigating even after being told not to interfere. Daisy is a likable character that I hope to read much more of.
