I’m excited to announce the Author’s Edition of Murder by Manicure (Bad Hair Day Mystery #3). Murder by Manicure was originally published by Kensington. This edition has been revised and updated with added bonus materials.
Join my Book Launch Party for the Author’s Edition of Murder by Manicure (Bad Hair Day Mystery #3) March 24, from 2-4pm EDT https://www.facebook.com/NewReleaseParty Fun & Giveaways! Guest authors Alyssa Maxwell, Joanna Campbell Slan, and Maggie Toussaint will be joining the party.
Hairstylist Marla Shore joins a fitness club to get in shape but discovers a dead body instead of an exercise routine. Jolene Myers—a client at Marla’s salon—has drowned beneath the frothing waters of the whirlpool. When Homicide Detective Dalton Vail determines Jolene’s death was no accident, Marla decides to give her deductive skills a workout and help solve the case.
Jolene had few friends at the fancy athletic club. As Marla gets to know everyone, she wonders who might have targeted Jolene for a lethal soak in the hot tub. The shady pharmacist? The smarmy city councilman? Or maybe the vocal animal rights activist? The fitness club staff had no fondness for Jolene, either. How far would they go to keep their secrets? When another member turns up dead, Marla intensifies her efforts to nail the killer and wrap the case. If she fails, the next buff body on its way to the morgue might be hers.
“Marla Shore is a beguiling, very clever sleuth who teases out every clue. Absolutely delightful!” Jill Churchill, author of the Jane Jeffry & Grace and Favor mystery series.
“Cohen fashions her Bad Hair Day series with plenty of humor, snappy repartee and even a healthy helping of current events.” The News Press
“In Murder by Manicure, a southern sleuth who’s a cut above the rest pulls out all the stops to wrap up another nail-biting murder that will leave readers eagerly awaiting their next appointment with Marla Shore.” Barnes & Noble Ransom Notes
“Observations about makeup, hair, and apparel mix with humorous, sexy overtones and catty remarks. A solid series addition.” Library Journal
“This series is hilarious and very enjoyable and contains many hijinks.” The Best Reviews
“For the reader who enjoys the twists and turns of a tale by Mary Higgins Clark, Murder by Manicure is a must read!” ReaderToReader.com

Going by the great reviews, this book sounds like my kind of book.
I hope you’ll give it a try!
Sounds great. Can’t wait to read.
Thank you!
Now I’m wondering about the revisions and bonus materials in the updated book. Haven’t read any of the books in the series.
My writing has progressed since I originally wrote this book, and so I gave it a tightening up without changing any of the story. it’s just written better. And the bonus materials include a cast of characters that wasn’t in the original either plus an excerpt from Body Wave, the next book in the series.
Hi Nancy! I better get busy…I have your debut in this series sitting on my bookshelf…so many books…so little time right? Thanks for the chance to win in your give-a-way!
Yes, you need to get busy reading! Good luck in the contest.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BOOK AND THANKS FOR THE GIVEAWAY!
And good luck to you in my contest.
Congratulations on the release of your new book….it looks like a fun read, a nice change from some of the heavier books I read. Thanks for the giveaway also!
My books are meant to make you smile. I’d rather you laugh than cry. You can get enough bad vibes if you watch the evening news.
Love the titles you come up with for this series! Too cute! Thanks and congrats!
Thank you, Sue. These books are fun to write.
Murder by Manicure sounds like the perfect weekend read!
Yes, it’s a fun book!
