The Bad Hair Day Mysteries Box Set Volume Five: Books 13-15
In this trio of adventures, Marla solves a murder at her day spa in the midst of the December holidays, investigates her best friend's suspicious car accident, and enters a bake-off contest at a farm festival where she discovers a dead body in the strawberry field. She even saves a neighbor and her pet from a cat-astrophe in a bonus short story.

FACIALS CAN BE FATAL
During the frenzy of the December holidays, the last thing salon owner Marla Vail needs is a dead body slathered in a green facial mask at her new day spa. Hoping to salvage her reputation, she determines to track down the killer. She'd better prepare for a body count that has nothing to do with hot stone massages and everything to do with murder.

Gold Medal Winner in the Readers' Favorite Book Awards
