Edgar Award-shortlisted author Ashley Weaver returns with the fourth installment in the Amory Ames mystery series.
The Essence of Malice is filled with her trademark style, wit and clever plotting, sure to delight and charm traditional mystery fans. In this highly enjoyable and engrossing mystery, Ashley Weaver--with her sure touch for evoking elegance and glamour--wafts her appealing and determined heroine Amory into the world of perfumers, family secrets and the heady whiff of murder. I loved the evocation of scents, skilful shifts of suspicion and the satisfying conclusion. --Frances Brody "The scent of murder and betrayal fills the Paris air . . . The climactic surprise makes this the best of her mysteries to date." --Kirkus Reviews "For pity's sake, darling, let me finish my coffee before you begin concocting schemes." When Amory Ames's husband Milo receives a troubling letter from his childhood nanny, Madame Nanette, the couple travel to Paris where they become embroiled in a mystery surrounding the death of a famous parfumier. Helios Belanger died suddenly, shortly before the release of his new, highly anticipated perfume, and Madame Nanette, who works for his family, is convinced that her employer's death was not due to natural causes. The more Amory and Milo look into the motives of industry rivals and the Belanger heirs who are vying for control of his perfume empire, the more they are convinced that Madame Nanette may be right. When secrets unfold and things take a dangerous turn, Amory and Milo must work quickly to uncover the essence of the matter and catch a killer before the scent goes cold.

Super luxe throw!
Color: Solid - Beige, Size: Throw (50" x 60"), Color: Solid - Beige, Size: Throw (50" x 60")
This is an absolutely incredible throw/blanket, especially for the price. Beautiful neutral color that will go with any decor. Very siIky to the touch with a coolness to it (hard to describe), thick and dense, and has a wonderful weight to it. It will be so cozy and warm in the cooler months. I own four Lola blankets at over $299 each (gulp) and these absolutely rival that brand in both quality and overall value. The faux fur/mink feels exactly the same for both brands. The only visible difference is that the back side of the WDCOZY brand is lined in a different material which also has a great quality feel and texture to it, very luxe. I've already ordered several more for Christmas gifts and for our AirBNB. I photographed the WDCOZY on the left comparing it to the Lola on the right. You can see how much fluffier the WDCOZY brand is. Highly recommend!

Very real like, hi-quality fur throw - love it!
Color: Tie-dye Brown, Size: Throw (50" x 60"), Color: Tie-dye Brown, Size: Throw (50" x 60")
Love this Throw - it is much prettier in person than the photo’s online. It is super soft and fur like - and is such a high quality throw. The fur looks and feels very real and the back side is a soft velvet like fabric - yummy!!! It’s very warm and cuddly!! I love the elegant look it has on the foot of our guest room bed - it’s the perfect size for a cozy nap! All in all I think it is a great value for the price and would encourage anyone looking at it to buy it!

Lovely blanket
Color: Solid - Ivory, Size: Throw (50" x 60")
We bought this blanket for my 89 yr old mother in law who just came home from the hospital. She loves to sleep with it and keeps it on her bed. It’s so cozy and brings comfort and warmth. It’s very soft on the reverse side even tho it’s not furry. Many have commented on the quality and how beautiful it is. Would highly recommend
