This salon's styles are to die for. Native Texan Cassidi Conti was expecting to face some obstacles when she moved to Danger Cove and opened The Clip and Sip, a hair salon that gives away free drinks. What she wasn't counting on was a client dying during a dye job. But when eighty-year-old Margaret Appleby comes in for her biweekly appointment, that's exactly what happens: Margaret drinks her usual soy chai, dozes off under the dryer...and doesn't wake up. Now The Clip and Sip is under suspicion, clients are wary, and Cassidi is on a mission to prove that while her styles may be killer, her employees are innocent! But as Cassidi wades through the myriad of suspects in the small, coastal town, the killer sets his sights straight on everyone's favorite stylist. If Cassidi doesn't watch her back, she may just end up Danger Cove's latest fashionable victim.

This novel is the latest installment in the Danger Cove Hair Salon Mystery series, following a pattern of cozy mysteries set in a quaint Pacific Northwest town. The premise suggests a lighthearted, character-driven plot typical of the cozy mystery genre, where an amateur sleuth tackles a murder within a specific community setting. The focus is likely on the puzzle of the murder, the relationships between the townsfolk, and the protagonist's efforts to uncover the truth, all while maintaining a generally non-graphic and engaging tone. The series' established format indicates a consistent appeal to readers who enjoy familiar tropes and a charming, albeit dangerous, small-town atmosphere.
