Title: It's a mod, mod, mod, mod, murder
Description: It's 1964, the Beatles have just hit America, and thanks to her secretarial job at Rip-City Records, Bebe Bennet has a front-row view of the British invasion. Her boss Bradley (whom she is determined to marry when he's ready to settle down) has just signed another hit English band, Philip Royal and the Beefeaters. Even more excitingly, Bebe's stewardess roommate made friends with the lead singer on the flight over, leading to the two of them having dates with the band. But when Bebe and Darlene show up, Philip's corpse is sharing the tub with a plugged-in electric guitar, the chorus of his latest song written on the wall. Suspicion soon settles on Darlene. Bebe--determined to clear her friend--heads for the Village, seeking to uncover the real culprit. This book, featuring a plucky girl detective, is also loaded with period detail.
