Description

New edition!

Red herrings and intelligent sleuthing make this cozy a winner.
- Publishers Weekly

Wedding planner Kelsey McKenna is just a few hours away from wrapping up her latest job: a destination wedding in the charming, colonial Mexican town of San Miguel de Allende. The reception is all set up, the tequila donkey is waiting outside, and the bride and groom are standing on the altar, pledging their eternal love. But just as the priest is about to pronounce them husband and wife, one of the bridesmaids upstages the couple by collapsing into a floral arrangement... a definite wedding "don't." Kelsey soon discovers that the girl hasn't just fainted -- she's dead.

Losing a bridesmaid is bad enough, but when the bride's sister is arrested for murder, the demanding mother of the bride insists that Kelsey fix the matter at once. And although Kelsey is pretty sure investigating a murder isn't in her contract, crossing the well-connected Mrs. Abernathy could be a career-killer. Before she can leave Mexico and get back to planning weddings, Kelsey must deal with stubborn detectives, a rekindled romance, and guests who didn't even RSVP.

Marla Cooper is one funny lady. Her debut mystery, Terror in Taffeta, crackles with sharp writing and clever plot twists. I definitely say "I do" to this rollicking romp through a wedding from hell.

Filled with quirky characters and plenty of action, Terror in Taffeta kept me coming back for more. Through thick and thin, Kelsey shows that she's the kind of protagonist we all want in our corner.
