Ellen Byerrum

    Ellen Byerrum crea gialli con un'astuta ed elegante detective: Lacey Smithsonian, una reporter di moda nella famosa ed eccentrica "Città che la Moda Dimenticò". Sebbene Lacey preferirebbe occuparsi di notizie di cronaca, i suoi acuti istinti e la sua abilità nello scoprire storie la rendono l'investigatrice perfetta per crimini nascosti nel mondo dell'alta moda. Nel suo caratteristico stile vintage, naviga tra indizi, figure carismatiche e segreti mortali, il tutto ambientato nel cuore della capitale. Byerrum condivide con la sua protagonista l'apprezzamento per l'abbigliamento vintage, un occhio attento per le assurdità della vita e un profondo affetto per il vibrante e spesso bizzarro mondo di Washington D.C.
