Permed to Death by Nancy J. Cohen

A client in a hair salon dies and the only other person around is the owner, Marla.  Marla is an interesting character and due to some things that happened to her in her past she needed to find out what happened to her client.  The story is laid out well, there is tension in the right places and intrigue that makes it hard to figure out who did it.  There is not a lot of drama, but there is the inter personal conflicts that keep you going.  I figured it out who did it before I reached the end but was very pleased with how the book finished.  It was a great little mystery.
