AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'When amateur sleuth Cassidy Blair is given the task of trying out a beauty salon for the dancers at The Pussycat Club, it's difficult to explain why she finds herself waking up the next morning on a local beach, at sunrise, naked apart from some awkward sunburn, and a pathetic story about a lost dog. With one of her friends dead, and her birthday coming up, Cassidy is too busy trying to squeeze herself into a tiny dress, caring for her new dog, Hellhound, not to mention guiding her recently detoxed friend Neil away from a crisis over his newly clean life to notice that she's caught the attention of some very unsavoury characters. In The Lady Splash, Cassidy Blair eventually ends up stuck in a cellar with no sign of escape. Then she discovers how much she really needs her friends.' (Publisher's blurb).

Notes

  • Book four of the Cassidy Blair Series.
  • Dedication: This book is dedicated to the animal rights organisations: Animal Liberation, RSPCA, WWF, The Animal Welfare League and The Humane Society for their tireless efforts to help protect animals from cruelty.
  • Epigraph: Whenever you're away from me, wherever you go
    You're never far away from me, I want you to know
    I only have to close my eyes dear, and suddenly I'm where you are
    You better never stray, 'cos I'll never be far away.
    Whenever You're Away from Me, John Farrar.
