This review is from: Stunning Way to Die (Paperback)

Lady Margaret is in the middle of entertaining some of her friends when her party is interrupted by a phone call. Bedros Kasparian, who owns an upscale antique business, is calling her for assistance. He has, most inconveniently, found a dead body in his shop. Lady Margaret excuses herself and goes to his shop where she gives him moral support and begins to put together some clues which she hopes will lead to the murderer. Kasparian himself is a suspect, but Lady Margaret thinks not. She rubs elbows with some California and New York society people and pursues a few red herrings, before she confronts the murderer and almost becomes the next victim. This is a pleasant and well-written mystery.
