Showing Dyed and Gone (Azalea March Mystery) by Beth Yarnall

Hairstylist Azalea March is looking forward to a wild weekend with her friends at a Las Vegas hair show. On the first morning of the show Dhane, a dynamic celebrity of the hair styling world, is found dead. Turns out Azalea’s friend, Vivian, not only knew Dhane but the tale she weaves of how they met is faker than a showgirl’s ah… assets. When Vivian confesses to the murder and is arrested, Azalea knows there’s no way she could have done it and suspects Vivian may be trying to protect someone. But who?

Azalea has to convince Alex, the sexy detective from her past, to help her prove Vivian’s innocence and comb through clues more twisted than a spiral perm. But the truth is stranger than anything found on the Las Vegas Strip and proving Vivian’s innocence turns out to be more difficult than transforming a brunette into a blond.
