Reviews

[Linda]

A milliner that is having trouble keeping up with the hats for the season is distracted when her ex husband shows up in New York. Brenda Midnight helps Nado (her ex) to score a free parking spot. Then there is a murder in the parking garage and Nado is missing. When Nado's current wife (who Brenda doesn't like) shows up and things get even crazier. Enjoyed this book.
