Pillow Stalk by Diane Vallere
5.0
Born on the same date, Interior Decorator Madison Night has modeled her life after Doris Day, but when a killer targets women dressed like the bubbly actress, Madison’s signature sixties style places her in the middle of a homicide investigation.
The local hunky and mysterious detective connects the new crimes to a twenty-year old cold case, and Madison’s long-trusted contractor (who’s ironically also hunky and mysterious) emerges as the leading suspect.
The body count piles up like the retro plush velvet pillows the victims are smothered with!
There are tons of references to 60’s Hollywood stars, fabulous retro furniture and accessories and the main character dresses in fabulous retro outfits!

An amazing book!
This is such a touching book and a fabulous insight into Aspergers. Another book that proves to me some of the best literature is in "young adult" books, this is better than a lot of adult reads.

An amazing book, but a very tough read if you know someone diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

I really enjoyed this, it reads more like a collection of short stories, but I like the cooking imagery.

So cute! A quick fun read!
I will keep reading this series...fun characters, enjoyable mysteries and cute sub-plots. Not believable, but who cares! The quilting is definitely not a major feature, but still fun.

This series is so much fun! If you're a mid-century fan (or not) you'll like the characters and the story.
