"When an over-the-top collection of vintage Hollywood costumes comes to Samantha Kidds hometown, it brings a hat box full of hype. Close friend Eddie is in charge of the exhibit but when hype turns to homicide, he turns to Samantha for help. Brimming with good intentions, she loops in the cops, but after one too many cloche calls, shes soon in over her head. If she can tear the lid off the investigation, it might mean a feather in her fedora. And if she cant? She might get capped."

This was a fun, nostalgic cozy read. The characters were enjoyable, fun and very real life. The author's ability of bringing her fashion abilities to the front were enduring. Her play on words made me chuckle. Brought back such fond memories and warmth of childhood, of what ladies used to wear, how they wore it remembering all the hats at church, weddings, social occasions --- piles of hat boxes and where did they all go! I would think almost any woman of any age would enjoy this read!...I enjoyed it more than enough to find more books by this author!
