A Job to Kill For: A Lacy Fields Mystery

Fun and entertaining

I picked this book up based on the cover and the fact that it is a mystery. It was an easy and entertaining read. I love the characters and the way Ms Kaplan tells the story. The book followed the same mystery format/formula, but it was not predictable. Ms Kaplan uses humor and wit in a wonderful way throughout the story.

Loved this book

This is the sequel to "Looks To Die For" and I liked it even better. Lacy Fields is a great heroine--she's funny and a mom and a decorator. The author has really clever characters and good plot--but most of all, you learn a lot about Los Angeles and TV and the whole world of the book seems very real.

a jocular lighthearted cozy.

In Los Angeles beautiful wealthy Cassie Crawford hires interior designer Lacy Fields to decorate her new three million dollar penthouse apartment. Lacy jokes that Cassie is a bigger pain than her three kids or her surgeon spouse and says to her best friend Molly Archer she wants to kill her bothersome client. Molly understands as she knows Cassie¿s spouse. When Lacy completes the job, she shows off her work to her young client only Cassie drops dead, a murder victim.--------------- Instead of the billionaire spouse, the cops suspect Lacy and her best friend Molly as the most likely killer(s). Refusing to sit idly by while the cops try to railroad her or Molly, Lacy investigates the homicide. However as she uncovers clues, the culprit watches to insure the amateur sleuth does not learn the truth.------------- The latest Lacy Fields amateur sleuth (see LOOKS TO DIE FOR) is an entertaining whodunit in which the humorous asides make for a fun read. From the onset when the heroine muses she would not have made a joke about killing Cassie if she knew someone was going to kill Cassie until the final confrontation, readers will enjoy Lacy¿s antics. A JOB TO KILL FOR is a jocular lighthearted cozy.----------- Harriet Klausner
