About the Book

"FIND THE CORSET!" A dying corset maker's last words send Lacey Smithsonian across the sea on a high-stakes scavenger hunt-and a race against the old woman's killer. Magda Rousseau's dark family secret: Her grandfather had stolen the jewel-filled corset of a dead Romanov princess. Who wouldn't kill for it? The fabled lost corset would be the find-and the fashion story-of the century. For Lacey this treasure hunt also means a trip to Paris, the City of Light, and a break from her romantic woes. "Bloody thread, knock 'em dead!" Magda's favorite saying, a theatre costumer's good-luck wish. If the seamstress pricks her finger sewing a costume, her drop of blood ensures the play's success. But murder ends Magda's luck, and her dream of finding the legendary corset. Lacey must follow a twisted thread of clues across two continents, tangling with jewel thieves, spies, and her fellow treasure hunters. But will Magda's "bloody thread" finally lead her to the fabulous lost corset? Or bring her face to face with a killer?
About the Author: ELLEN BYERRUM is a novelist, a playwright, a reporter, a former Washington, D.C., journalist, and a graduate of private investigator school in Virginia. Her Crime of Fashion mystery series features a savvy, stylish female sleuth named Lacey Smithsonian. Lacey is a reluctant fashion reporter in Washington D.C., which she lovingly refers to as "The City Fashion Forgot." Two Crime of Fashion novels, Killer Hair and Hostile Makeover, have been filmed. The Woman in the Dollhouse is Byerrum's first suspense thriller. She anticipates exploring Tennyson's continuing odyssey in a sequel. Byerrum's middle-grade mystery, The Children Didn't See Anything, is the first in a planned series starring the precocious twelve-year-old Bresette twins. Her plays, A Christmas Cactus and Gumshoe Rendezvous, are published under her pen name, Eliot Byerrum. Follow Ellen Byerrum on Facebook and Twitter and on her website at ellenbyerrum.com. Her books are available through Amazon and other booksellers. Her YouTube Channel was inspired by readers' interest in the "Fashion BITES" penned by her protagonist, Lacey Smithsonian. These short YouTube videos offer Byerrum's practical fashion advice and humorous style commentary: https: //www.youtube.com/channel/UCvnouFJdA-CTxwzY25gsncA
