Mysteries with Character"A fun, light-hearted mystery set in Florida is a fun escape from reality. I enjoyed every minute of it." Socrates Book Reviews"It's a pleasure to see a sleuthing story evolve where the protagonist is just as vested in her business, family, and community interactions as she is in her investigation, which embraces all three concerns. Cohen's ability to bring these disparate facets to life in a story that moves between personal concerns and social and community change, weaving the "perfect murder" scenario into these interplays, makes Styled for Murder an intriguing read."
