PRAISE FOR MURDER IN THE DRESSING ROOM:

“At its essence, this is a serious work of crime fiction, wonderfully executed and leaving unanswered some important questions. It has all the makings of a great series.”—FirstClue Reviews

 

 “With lovable characters, lively dialogue, and dry humor, Stars concocts a winning formula. It’s a glittering good time.”—Publishers Weekly

 

“Combines fabulous details and a puzzling mystery.”—Booklist

 

“I love MURDER IN THE DRESSING ROOM! What a fantastic read...I couldn’t put the book down until I found out exactly who the culprit was and it was a shock to find out who did it! What a sneaky queen!!! It was such a thrill to read and every single character came to life in my mind. Holly is such an imaginative writer and storyteller. I could see the places and faces in my mind and I was hooked from the first paragraph. Through reading every page I was one hundred percent invested and felt as if I were a drag queen detective myself. Call me JUJU MISTY BEE moving forward. I can’t wait for the next installment of this one of its kind story. The best drag show I’ve ever been to!!! I need more now!!!”Jujubee

ABOUT MURDER IN THE DRESSING ROOM:

In MURDER IN THE DRESSING ROOM, Joe is a hotel accountant by day, invisibly sitting behind their desk and playing by the rules. 


By night, donned in sequins, they take to the stage as Misty Divine, a star of the London drag scene. 


But when Misty’s drag mother, Lady Lady, is found dead in her dressing room beside a poisoned box of chocolates, Misty and her fellow performers become the prime suspects.

 

Heartbroken by the loss, and frustrated by the clear biases of the police, Misty must solve the crime before the culprit strikes again. 


Among the drop-dead gorgeous lurks a cutthroat killer, and Misty, caught in a web of sequins and suspicions, won't rest until she finds out who it is.
