Death of a Dream Maker (Partners in Crime Mysteries #3)

MURDER IS SUDDENLY VERY FASHIONABLE IN MANHATTAN'S GARMENT DISTRICTMax Rosenbloom, multimillionaire owner of Max Rose Fashions, is on his way to see his former flame Lil when he's killed in a car bomb explosion that rocks New York's fashion district. Because he's filthy rich and in the mob-controlled rag trade, there's no end to suspects. But the list becomes one less when Max's favorite nephew turns up dead in his uncle's freshly dug grave.Eighty-something Auntie Lil and her own nephew T. S. Hubbert set forth on a dangerous quest that takes them from the sophisticated world of fashion to the lethal underworld of murderous thugs, and from the white-collar realm of corporate embezzlers to the skeleton-stuffed closets of unloving relatives. The two sleuths just hope they can solve the murder and clear Max's name before the killer gets to them...."AUNTIE LIL IS DELIGHTFULLY FEISTY."--Publishers Weekly
