Dial D for Dye
About
On Friday morning, somebody called the salon to cancel Twila Byers' next appointment. Twila had been dead since Wednesday.
For forty years Twila kept the Water Lily Society's telephone tree — a rotary-era gossip network that still outruns the internet — along with every secret the line ever handed her. The last time she sat in Blair Cole's chair, she tried to hand one over.
Blair filed it under small-town static.
Now Twila's at the bottom of her own cellar stairs, the county calls it October and steep steps and eighty-one years old, and Blair's shop has taken a phone call from someone who knew Twila was dead before Monet did.
Half of Monet says Blair caught a killer six weeks ago. The other half says she brought one home. And the man she's starting to suspect is one this town would sooner protect than doubt.
Dial D for Dye is the second Monet, Kansas Mystery — a small-town cozy with a fair-play puzzle, a warm community, and no violence on the page. Tangled plots, colorful characters, and killer endings.
