Raiders of the Lost Corset
“A hilarious crime caper . . . readers will find themselves
laughing out loud. . . . Ellen Byerrum has a hit series on her
hands with her latest tale.”
—The Best Reviews
“I love this series. Lacey is such a wonderful character. . . . The
plot has many twists and turns to keep you turning the pages to
discover the truth. I highly recommend this book and series.”
—Spinetingler Magazine
“Wow. A simplistic word, but one that describes this book
perfectly. I loved it! I could not put it down! . . . Lacey is a
scream, and she’s not nearly as wild and funny as some of her
friends. The story line twists and turns, sending the reader from
Washington, DC, to France, and finally to New Orleans. . . . I
loved everything about the book from the characters to the plot
to the fast-paced and witty writing.” —Roundtable Reviews
“Lacey is back, and in fine form. . . . This is probably the most
complex, most serious case that Lacey has taken on, but with
her upbeat attitude and fine-tuned fashion sense, there’s no one
better suited to the task. Traveling with Lacey is both entertain
ing and dicey, but you’ll be glad you made the trip.”
—The Romance Reader’s Connection

vintage cloche. . . . All these wonderful characters combine
with Byerrum’s . . . clever plotting and snappy
