About this ebook
A fashion model dead after eating chocolates laced with methamphetamines.
An upscale boutique owner’s son the primary suspect.
On leave after a traumatic incident and battling PTSD, Portland Police Officer Raine Holloway agrees to go undercover to quietly investigate the source of the chocolates for the store owner. A tee shirt and jeans girl when not in uniform, she knows less than nothing about fashion.
The boutique owner needs to replace the deceased model for an upcoming fashion show––the only way for Raine to get behind the scenes at the small boutique where the beautiful young model died.
As Raine learns how to wear the clothes and walk the showroom, she uncovers rivalries and secrets skimming beneath the boutique’s elegant surface. Only three short days to discover who slipped the deadly chocolates into the victim’s hands. The killer has one advantage: Raine doesn’t know who to trust and not knowing could cost her her life.
The first novella in the Healy House Mysteries. A two hour read.
