The promise of discretion and pampering-and a long-overdue reconciliation with her mother-draws Caroline Blessing, the young wife of a newly-elected Congressman, to the fancy Phoenix Spa. But after her first night in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, Caroline wakes to find the rich and famous guests in turmoil and under suspicion: the spa's flamboyant and ambitious owner has been murdered. As the secrets come out-and the body count rises, can Caroline keep herself from becoming the next victim?
this was so much fun to read! at least 4 of my favorite authors.
each chapter was written by a different woman author,each building on
what had been written before. no setting up plots with each other,they
got what was written and had to go from there, reminds me playing
telephone as a kid.they all had to be written in 3rd person.
I would love to read more like this.
there were small differences in each style of writer,
but over all if you didn't know there were 13 different
women writing, you would not be aware of it.
Some good writing, so not so good.
Very interesting book. I loved the premise of it and the fact that I was created to help others. Not to mention, it was really a GOOD book!
This was a truly fun read! Think Agatha Christie supercharged.
This is a real page turner. I could not put it down. This is a murder mystery of epic proportions written by 13 female authors, including Nevada Barr, J.D. Robb, Faye Kellerman, Laurie King, and others! Each author wrote one chapter. It was miraculous how well it all flowed together and how very well written!
I can highly recommend this to mystery fans.
