The intrepid senior sleuth returns in this âmodern-day British cozy with a twist . . . even the most seasoned reader will be surprisedâ (Booklist, starred review). Bea Abbotâs domestic agency does not, repeat not, investigate murder . . . that is, until she gets a call from her usually unflappable friend Florrie Green. Florrieâs professional cleaning service has come upon the riotously popular female impersonator, Matthew Kent, dead to the world in his bed. Could it be suicide? Authorities say yes. To Bea? Something doesnât quite fit. Namely, Matthewâs red-spangled high-heels. The meticulous artiste would never be caught dead in uncomfortable pumps. Beaâs also considering the trio of vultures circling Matthewâs estate: his two ex-wives ready to plunder the overstuffed Victorian house of its valuable antiques; and Matthewâs stepdaughter who has eyes on the house itself. From âclever clueing [to] a shocking solution,â Bea is determined to find out who among Matthewâs scavenger relatives are dressed to kill (Kirkus Reviews).
