Mandy Dyer, Bk 8

When normally dowdy Ardith Brewster starts bringing in her new, colorful, stylish clothing to Dyer's Cleaners, Mandy Dyer knows love is in the air. So who has inspired such sartorial splendor in the forty-something loan officer? Ardith confesses she met Mr. Right at Mandy's recent open house. But when Ardith is strangled to death, Mandy is stunned and guilt-ridden. She suspects the killer is one of her customers. The police connect Ardith's murder to another local slaying, which makes Mandy doubly anxious, especially when her snooping reveals that the first victim was also a customer who bore a striking resemblance to Ardith.
