Holy guacamole, Susie Black does it again in Death by Cutting Table. I enjoyed reading the fourth entry in the Holly Swimsuit mystery series, and Black offers another hilarious murder story starring Holly Schlivnik, her Yenta buddies, and her best friend, Queenie Levine. Holly describes herself as a nosy parker who cannot fake sincerity, and she is correct. When her friend Queenie comes under suspicion for the latest murder (the CEO of their company), Holly springs into action again with her own investigation. CEO Butch Oldham has bankrupted his company, stolen his job from a friend, and dumped his wife … for starters. There is no shortage of suspects for an overbearing detective pursuing Oldham’s killer, along with helpers that are “uniformed versions of Starsky and Hutch.”
As with her other Holly Swimsuit books, Susie Black keeps the reader guessing until the end. I love the characters, probably the most vital component of this series, but the descriptions of the fashion industry and everything that goes with it make marvelous stories. This is a strong recommendation for all the Holly Swimsuit books, but Death by Cutting Table may be the best in the series.
