Rating: 4 out of 5

Spying in High Heels is the first in a series of "High Heel Mysteries" which chronicle the life of a Los Angeles Fashionista, Maddie Springer. Maddie likes all things fashion, especially shoes. After studying fashion design at college but failing to make it big in the fashion industry in L.A. she makes a living by designing children's shoes.Another thing about Maddie is that she is a serial late-comer and when she turns up late for a lunchtime date with her lawyer boyfriend, Richard, she suddenly finds herself unwittingly caught up in a sequence of events which lead to string of murders and a $20 million fraud. Then Richard disappears and whilst she is looking for clues to his whereabouts she stumbles into dangerously handsome LAPD detective Ramires who is also interested in finding her beau. Then the romp begins.This is a light, easy read with humorous and zany characters. It is not very long, so is a quick read at 250 pages. The dialogue is sharp and whilst the events seem a little far fetched, it is a fun and frivolous tale. I will definitely be reading more in this series.
