Death of a Flapper

Abigail Dixon has been sent to Paris for work as a journalist, she wants to do real news but she’s stuck with dull fashion and society. On her first assignment she stumbles upon the dead body of her estrange stepmother and now has to avoid the guillotine.

This book benefits from the previous cozy I just read was pretty bad so this is coming off as a lot better.

The sleuthing falls into the background and there’s a lot of Gossip Girl makeover fashion moments that takes up too much time and the MC is suddenly a muse for a designer and goes to parties to market his designs, luckily for her she comes across people at these parties that might have facts that can help her.

More sleuthing in the next book perhaps? I might give it try. Unless more real historical people pops up in that one, I hate that.
