A Disguise to Die For
by Diane Vallere

Someone is dressed to kill in the debut Costume Shop
Mystery from the national bestselling author of the Material
Witness mysteries.

No sooner does former magician’s assistant Margo
Tamblyn return home to Proper City, Nevada, to run Disguise
DeLimit, her family’s costume shop, than she gets her
first big order. Wealthy nuisance Blitz Manners needs forty
costumes for a detective-themed birthday bash. As for Blitz
himself, his Sherlock Holmes is to die
for—literally—when, in the middle of the
festivities, Margo’s friend and party planner Ebony
Welles is caught brandishing a carving knife over a very
dead Blitz.

For Margo, clearing Ebony’s name is anything but
elementary, especially after Ebony flees town. Now Margo is
left to play real-life detective in a town full of masked
motives, cloaked secrets, and veiled vendettas. But as she
soon learns, even a killer disguise can’t hide a
murderer in plain sight for long.
