Welcome to Pendlebrook—where the gossip is loud, the secrets run deep, and murder is just another appointment on the books.

Erica Evans thought owning a small-town salon would mean managing color corrections and last-minute bangs—not crime scenes. But when a glamorous client drops dead mid-appointment, Erica's quiet routine is tossed into chaos. As whispers swirl and fingers point, it's clear someone in Pendlebrook has something to hide.

Armed with her stylist's eye for detail, a psychic roommate with more intuition than accuracy, and a stubborn sense of justice, Erica starts combing through the lies left behind. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more tangled the mystery becomes—and someone wants her silenced before she untangles the final knot.

Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries, sharp heroines, and secrets lurking behind freshly frosted windows, Highlights and Homicide is the first in a stylish new series full of charm, wit, and danger hiding in plain sight.
