Murder in Fashion — Renee Pawlish

Amazon #1 Bestselling Author - over 1 million books in circulation. Murder In Fashion In post-World War II Denver, the world of fashion can be murder. Herb Washburn has already been convicted of murdering his boss, Mel Templeton, owner of Templeton Fashion. And in a few days, Herb is headed to the Colorado state prison for a long stay in a decidedly unfashionable suit of clothes. Herb still claims he didn't commit the crime and, as a last resort, his wife hires Denver private investigator Dewey Webb to find the real killer. During Dewey's investigation into the personalities and workings of the world of design, he discovers clues that may exonerate Herb. At the same time, Dewey senses secrets and lies that cast serious doubt on Herb's version of the events. And when Dewey realizes that someone is on his trail who doesn't want the murder solved, he must act fast before he becomes fashion's next victim. A hard-boiled, historical mystery that's great for fans who love a traditional detective crime story with a noir flavor, but without a lot of sex or swearing. Dewey Webb first appeared in the Reed Ferguson mystery, Back Story. Pick up a copy of Back Story to find out more about this classic hard-boiled detective. The Dewey Webb historical mystery series: • Book 1: Web of Deceit • Book 2: Murder In Fashion Great Reviews for the Reed Ferguson private investigator series: Kirkus Reviews: The promising kickoff to Pawlish's comic mystery series, starring far-from-perfect PI Reed Ferguson. Pawlish earns high marks for plot construction, with twists and turns naturally unfolding as Ferguson, inexperienced but not incapable, feels his way through the case. A good-humored mystery series worth following. 5 star review: Oh how I've missed the Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe characters that saw me with a flashlight in the dead of night flipping pages to see what happened next. Thank you Ms. Pawlish for bringing back to life this long-lost art of the detective battling against all odds and getting to the bottom of things. - Maureen with zencherry book reviews The Reed Ferguson mystery series: • Book 1: This Doesn't Happen In The Movies • Book 2: Reel Estate Rip-off • Book 3: The Maltese Felon • Book 4: Farewell, My Deuce • Book 5: Out Of The Past • Book 6: Torch Scene • Book 7: The Lady Who Sang High • Book 8: Sweet Smell Of Sucrets • Book 9: The Third Fan • Book 10: Back Story • Book 11: Night of the Hunted • Book 12: The Postman Always Brings Dice • Book 13: Road Blocked • Book 14: coming soon • Kindle Worlds Novella: Walk Softly, Danger • short story: Elvis And The Sports Card Cheat • short story: A Gun For Hire Private Investigator Mystery Series Categories: - Mystery Series - Private Investigator Series - Crime Fiction - Crime Series - Private Detective Novels - historical mystery, thriller & suspense fiction - pulp - hard-boiled - noir - detective - private eye - traditional - historical mysteries
