Now the Gloss magazine true-crime writer returns in a story of high style and low murder that goes behind the salons and saunas of a ritzy country spa to uncover… A Body to Die For. After her last adventure, Bailey Weggins is one tired reporter in need of R & R. So when an old family friend invites her for a free weekend at the Cedar Inn in rural Massachusetts, she jumps at the chance to leave Manhattan for some major pampering. At the elegant mid-19th-century hideaway, with its Asian-inspired spa, Bailey is soon luxuriating to the hypnotic sound of water spilling over stones and the soothing scent of green-tea candles. Yet mayhem is mere steps away, as Bailey discovers when she literally stumbles across a corpse wrapped mummy-style in a treatment room. Suddenly, her time-out is transformed into a full-tilt murder investigation. Bailey hadn’t expected to meet anyone other than socialites slathering their cellulite with Shea butter, but now she’s dealing with a list of suspects dirtier than a mud bath: a spurned lover, a shady husband, and a group of employees who seem to be hiding something. And against her better judgment, she can’t seem to keep her own hands off the sexy homicide detective assigned to the case. Desperate to help her mother’s friend, the owner of the spa, Bailey finds herself chasing clues across state lines just as another death sweeps her into the sights of a vicious killer. And this time, the body in the mud wrap could be her own less

In Bailey’s latest outing, she takes the plunge into a world of designer wedding dresses, domestic divas, and deadly nuptial doings. When she gets a call from Ashley Hanes on a frigid January night, Bailey’s ready to tell her she’s not pulling any of her Gloss magazine strings to get Ashley into a designer sample sale. But the Connecticut trust-fund baby isn’t looking for fashion favors; she wants to rehash the Cross/Slavin wedding. It turns out that Peyton Cross—the Vera Wang-attired bride and Martha Stewart wannabe—is once again the talk of the town. Two of her bridesmaids have recently died in freak accidents, and Ashley’s terrified she’ll be next. Bailey’s interest is definitely piqued—she was Peyton’s college roommate and a bridesmaid in her wedding as well. Leaving her latest boyfriend behind in Manhattan, Bailey bundles up for the cold, scenic drive to Ivy Hill Farm in Greenwich, Connecticut, home of Peyton’s burgeoning catering and gourmet-food business. She’s barely begun asking questions when Ashley becomes Bridesmaid Casualty #3. After Bailey is attacked by an assailant in a cashmere coat, she realizes she’s been targeted by a well-heeled killer who knows how to dress for the weather—which narrows the list of suspects to most of the population of Greenwich, including Peyton’s employees and intimate friends. Before Bailey knows it, she is following a dangerous trail of clues that will take her from the elegant suburbs of Connecticut to New York’s trendy Lower East Side to a fabulous oceanfront hotel room in Miami. With the clock ticking and a well-concealed murderer vowing to get her out of the picture, Bailey could become the headline of the next true-crime story: “Four Funerals and a Wedding.” less

Just a couple of weeks shy from her 34th birthday, she disappeared after going for a morning jog in her neighborhood of Lake George, New York. The residents in the idyllic lakeside town—which is popular with summer tourists—are stunned. Wasting no time, Shannon’s sister organizes search parties with the police. Though no one says the words, everyone is hoping they aren’t too late and can’t help fearing the worst. Bailey Weggins, now working for the online magazine Crimebeat, is on assignment covering Shannon’s disappearance. It’s a small town so naturally she wonders if the person responsible must be someone close to Shannon: her distraught husband…her bitter sister…a creepy hotel owner who watched her run every morning…the priest who is evasive to Bailey’s questioning. When an anonymous caller reaches out to Bailey and gives her the cryptic clue that Shannon was a “good Catholic girl,” the tip eventually leads Bailey to Shannon and a grisly discovery. As she soon learns, Shannon’s case isn’t an isolated incident. For the killer had targeted young blonde women in the area about a decade before, leaving each of them with stigmata markings. The questions abound. Why has the serial killer chosen this particular calling card and what is the religious significance behind the murders? Other than the similarities in appearance, why were these women targeted? And most disturbing of all, why has this psychopath decided to resume the slayings after so many years? When another reporter who is similarly following the Shannon Blaine story is murdered, Bailey is in a desperate race against time as she goes on the hunt to track down a serial killer, who always seems to be one step ahead…. less
