When Ellison's friend Kay Morrison visits Kansas City from New York, there are certain women who turn green with envy. After all, Kay works in the fashion industry, she actually attended the Battle of Versailles, and her clothes are to die for.
But Ellison is happy to host a luncheon for her oh-so-chic friend. Too bad murder crashes the party.
Ellison is immediately drawn into two investigations. One, the murder. The second, a cruel theft.
With friends as suspects and two funerals to plan, Ellison's mood is black. And, if she's not careful, the next funeral she attends may be her own.
