Death by Pins and Needles by Susie Black

 Who wanted Lissa Charney dead? The list was as long as your arm….but which one actually killed her?

About the Book:  The last thing Mermaid Swimwear sales exec Holly Schlivnik expected to find when she opened the closet door was nasty competitor Lissa Charney’s battered corpse nailed to the wall. When Holly’s colleague is wrongly arrested for Lissa’s murder, the wise-cracking, irreverent amateur sleuth sticks her nose everywhere it doesn’t belong to sniff out the real killer. Nothing turns out the way she thinks it will as Holly matches wits with a heartless killer hellbent for revenge.

Our Review: One of the strengths of this book is the author’s clear and extensive experience in the garment industry. The characters are diverse and unique. It is also, unfortunately, a difficult read due to overlong, poorly punctuated sentences compounded by the author’s devotion to description by analogy.

On a scale of 1-5, Death by Pins and Needles merits a 3.
