Gilley's whirlwind romance with creative director Stuart Jacobs began in Paris, where Stuart was sourcing fabric for the world-renowned Texas Rose Festival, which he is heading up for the first time. The festival is nothing short of spectacular, bringing in half a million people (and their wallets) to see the artistic displays, and exquisite gowns and jewels worn by the Rose Queen and her court. Stuart and his crew seem to have it all under control. But the night Cat arrives in Texas, someone is shot in cold blood, and a member of Stuart's staff is named the prime suspect!
The Rose Festival is too important to the city's economy to cancel, so while Stuart scrambles to prevent the festival from derailing, Cat and Gilley launch their own investigation into the murder. With a parade of potential suspects to parse, and an even longer list of motives, they bring in East Hampton Police Detective Steve Shepherd to help. As rumors of arson, burglary, and professional sabotage swirl around the already fraught festival planning, Cat and her team immerse themselves in the cutthroat pageantry to identify the killer, who has already picked their next victim . . .

      Laurie’s fizzy fifth cozy featuring Hamptons life coach Cat Cooper (after 2022’s Coached Red-Handed) sees Cat and her best friend, Gilley Gillespie, investigating the murder of a costume designer. After literally running away from her boyfriend’s marriage proposal, Cat seeks the support of Gilley in Texas, where he’s staying with his new boyfriend, Stuart Jacobs. A former Broadway costume designer, Stuart has been hired to create elaborate dresses for the Texas Rose Festival’s queen and her attendants. Not a full day of work passes before Stuart’s assistant designer, Broderick Carmichael, is found dead, and Broderick’s twin sister, Imani, is arrested by the overeager local police, who want to close the case before it threatens the economically vital festival. When Cat and Gilley, convinced of Imani’s innocence, set out to find the real culprit, their digging turns up additional crimes, including the theft of the festival queen’s jewels. The mystery plot sprawls a bit, but series fans who’ve invested in Cat and Gilley’s personal lives will find plenty of juicy developments to savor. This is good fun. Agent: Jim McCarthy, Dystel, Goderich & Bourret.
