About this listen

A designer-bag addict investigates death at a department store in this mystery with "lots of humor and style" from a USA Today best-selling author (Booklist).

Haley Randolph is always ready to go to any lengths to get the latest Louis Vuitton. Unfortunately for Haley, her life goes from glam to grim when her passion for fashion outlasts her credit cards, and she's forced to work at Holt's - a mid-market department store. Looking for a bit of shopping inspiration, Haley sneaks into the stock room to get a first glimpse of Holt's one-of-a-kind selection of handbag styles. But instead of the newest Vuitton, Haley discovers her boss is the ultimate fashion victim.

According to the security tapes, Haley was the only person in the stockroom before, during, and after the murder. With everyone in the store eyeing her like last season's Marc Jacobs, Haley turns to the hunky Ty Cameron, who heads up the store's loss prevention unit, to help her investigate the murder. Now her knowledge of hot trends will take her from the sales floor to the boardroom to the gritty streets of LA's Garment District as she searches for a killer with impeccable fashion taste....

This is a free first book which I love because I really like to interact with new (to me) authors.
This book has just the right narrator for the ditzy heroine. At the beginning I was a bit hesitant but as I got into the easy listening book I found I wanted to know how this self centred girl was going to stop daydreaming (which I found very amusing) and solve the case.
I must’ve enjoyed it because I purchased the second one. I don’t know if I will continue on with the series but I’m interested enough to give the second one a go.

Ditzy but funny
