Dressed to Kill by Margaret Duffy
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Mrs. Pryce is hated by all the people that surround her, so when she is murdered, all her neighbors are suspects. And these are very peculiar neighbors!
Joanna McKenzie, an ex police woman who now runs a private detective agency, was hired by nasty Mrs. Pryce just before she was killed, to find out who was stealing the plants in her garden.
To make matters more complicated, the police officer in charge is Joanna's ex lover and colleague, Inspector James Carrick.
I'm not sure that the title matches the book very much (you get to know why it's called "Dressed to Kill", but to me it's a bit forced). And there's another investigation going on, about a very valuable artifact stolen from a church, that somehow ends up tied to this investigation.
This is a light, pleasant read and I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
