Mix together a cocktail for murder, add a few salty suspects, toss in a dollop of sweet humor, and you have the recipe for Trimmed to Death, #15 in the Bad Hair Day cozy mystery series.
Savvy hairstylist and amateur sleuth Marla Vail enters a charity bake-off contest at a fall festival sponsored by a local farm. While she waits to see if her coconut fudge pie is a winner, Marla joins a scavenger hunt where people playing character roles are the targets. Instead of scoring points with a live person, she finds a dead body planted face-down in the strawberry field. Who would want to cut short the life of food magazine publisher and fellow bake-off contestant Francine Dodger? As she investigates, Marla learns there’s no shortage of suspects. A celebrity TV chef, food critic, olive oil importer, food truck owner, pastry chef, and cookbook author may be stirring up more than their next recipe. Can Marla unmask the killer before someone else gets trimmed from life?

Review: TRIMMED TO DEATH by Nancy Cohen
TRIMMED TO DEATH is a low-key cozy mystery featuring amateur sleuth and hairdresser Marla, who lives in South Florida with her homicide detective husband Dalton and his adolescent daughter Brianna. When a harvest festival at a local farm includes a suspicious death, Dalton has jurisdiction and Marla investigates in her own gentle way. There's a number of people with possibly suspicious agendas, but Marla and her family persevere, even though eventually she will be endangered. The author juggles a fair number of characters and plot lines without giving away "the farm." (Intentional pun!)
