Description
Book Synopsis
A dry cleaner-turned-amateur sleuth investigates her ex-husband when his new wife-to-be turns up dead in this cozy mystery. There's nothing unusual about a young bride entrusting Mandy Dyer with her wedding dress. Mandy runs a dry cleaners--her customers bring in gowns all the time. But when Mandy realizes the bride-to-be is marrying her womanizing ex-husband, she sees red--especially when she discovers the bride stabbed to death in her bridal suite. With Larry as the prime suspect, Mandy is up to her neck in her ex's dirty laundry once more. Only this time, the stink of it is even worse. Putting her sleuthing skills to use, Mandy is determined to make sure that whoever killed this innocent woman gets their just deserts. And Mandy most certainly doesn't mean wedding cake . . .
