Book Review of Murder In Luxury

Murder In Luxury
reviewed on


Rich, beautiful, lonely and in trouble, Valerie Summers arrived at New York's luxurious Hotel Beaumont dragging a trail of murder that baffled even the Beaumont's legendary manager, Pierre Chambrun.

First her mother, then a man she had a crush on, then her husband, then her best friend, then a punk in her apartment--and now a dead cop in her hotel room. Was she the terrified victim of a killer with a grudge...or a monster hidden behind a lovely face?

Everybody is playing wild guessing games, but it's clear there's a killer out there, mad as a hatter, deadly as a cobra, circulating in Chambrun's world--watching...and waiting.
