Lucy and her daughter, Elizabeth, have won a mother/daughter make-over and a trip to New York care of Jolie magazine. When Lucy discovers that the trip involves a contest for the best make-over and a $10,000 prize, she is overjoyed. The tuition at Elizabeth's school was just increased and without the prize money she might have to withdraw from school. When one of the magazine's executives and Elizabeth are poisoned with anthrax, investigative reporter Lucy Stone goes into action. Set in the Big Apple but with frequent references to home town, Maine, this is a delightful murder mystery and a tromp through the world of high fashion and the beauty industry, lightly dusted with terrorism, and served on a heart-warming holiday platter.
