Armed and Glamorous

Autor Ellen Byerrum
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 2018
Welcome to Private Eye School! The homework will kill you. Lacey Smithsonian's journalism career is going nowhere fast. After collaring killers, saving lives, rescuing homeless children, and recovering priceless jewels (which she didn't get to keep), she's still stuck on the fashion beat at the third-string newspaper in Washington, D.C. (The City Fashion Forgot). She needs a "serious" beat. What's a savvy reporter to do? Why not take a private eye class! Polish her investigative skills, learn to sleuth like a pro (like her boyfriend, Vic Donovan), and perhaps even land a non-fashion-related news story or two, while keeping it all under cover. But then she meets her crazy classmates, stumbles over the haute-coutured corpse in the Jaguar, spends a girls' night out at the gun range, and flunks Surveillance 101. All Lacey wanted was a shot at a new beat! So why are people shooting at her? And can she hit the bull's eye before the killer shoots again? Welcome to Private Eye School! The homework will kill you.

She received a private investigator's registration in the Commonwealth of Virginia.Byerrum's "screwball noir" Crime of Fashion Mysteries feature D.C. fashion reporter Lacey Smithsonian, whose talent for solving crimes with fashion clues leads her to dead bodies dyed blue, haunted shawls, and the lost jewel-filled corset of a Romanov princess. Two books in the series, Killer Hair and Hostile Makeover, were filmed for Lifetime.Her latest book, The Brief Luminous Flight of the Firefly, is the 1940s prequel to the series.

"It bewitches on page one," Best Thrillers says, "and continues to mesmerize until its shocking conclusion." She has also penned a middle grade mystery, The Children Didn't See Anything and a new children's picture book in rhyme, Sherlocktopus Holmes: Eight Arms of the Law.Two of her plays (under her pen name Eliot Byerrum) are published by Samuel French and available through Concord Theatricals.
