Brett Cavanugh is the owner of the Painted Lady, a tattoo shop
on the Strip in Las Vegas. One of Brett's best customers, Daisy
Carmichael, a lead singer in a popular pop group, is found dead
in a hotel room. She is surrounded by tattoo supplies including
needles and ink pots. Brett becomes a prime suspect when the police
are informed that a woman matching Brett's description is witnessed
leaving the scene of the crime. Pictures appear on the Internet
showing Brett. She is being stalked by her impersonator. To clear
her name Brett must find who is behind these events and find the
real killer.
This is an action packed, fast moving mystery. The plot is well
thought out. The characters have depth and interesting personalities.
The scenes of Las Vegas are set in your mind by the author. There
is a touch of romance with the mystery. And, the reader can learn
a few things about tattoos!
