Title:
Homicide in High Heels
Author: Gemma Halliday
Review: Homicide
in high heels follows Maddie Springer fashion lover and shoe designer as she
tries to balance marriage, her twins 1st birthday and finding a murder to keep her
faux dad’s salon alive. When Maddie Husband Jack Ramirez the big bad homicide
detective is suspended for punching out a ball player he ask Maddie the one
thing she never thought he would ever ask. “I need you to investigate the
murder for me.” This was music to Maddie, Marco, Dana ears and for the first
time Maddie felt pressure to find the murder and solve the mystery. Ramirez
takes over the job of Mr. Mom and to Maddie’s surprise he seems to always have
the twins asleep, the house cleaned and dinner ready without a hair out of
place while Maddie is off dealing with crazy Baseball Wives, moody baseball
players, tabloid reporters and strippers.
Just like all the rest of the high heel
mysteries it’s a clean, quick fun read, full of laughs and enough twist and
turns to keep you guessing who the murder is. The character are true to
themselves and the series that Gemma Halliday created. If you love Mystery High
heel series this is a can’t miss book.
This book is a perfect summer poolside read.
Thank you Heidi for this review.
