Stark Raving Mod - Vallere, Diane

Résumé :
Samantha Kidd has solved her share of crimes-but when it comes to espionage, she's an absolute beginner. When Samantha wins a mystery trunk from the estate of a glamorous sixties pop star, she expects mod fashions and vintage memorabilia. What she finds instead are classified documents that point to secrets far more dangerous than miniskirts and vinyl records. After repeated attempts to steal the trunk, Samantha decides to sell it-keeping the questionable papers safely out of sight. But when the new owner is found dead, clutching one of the singer's albums, walking away is no longer an option. Drawn into a web of old secrets, shady collectors, and people who would kill to keep the past buried, Samantha must rely on her instincts-and a little help from her friends-to uncover the truth.

Stark Raving Mod is the thirteenth mystery in the Killer Fashion Mysteries, blending mod-era style, vintage secrets, and a high-stakes puzzle that proves the past never stays buried. ...
