Blondes may have more fun, but not at the hands of these mistresses of mystery...

They’re beautiful blondes with style, money, and men falling at their feet. But now these perfect women are becoming perfect victims. In Drop-Dead Blonde, four of today’s top mystery authors spin four all-new tales of fair-haired sirens, secrets, and seduction.
