Staging Wars
Staging Wars

Laura Bishop's new home staging business is growing in popularity, though not with her nemesis. Laura has long suspected established interior designer Monica Heller of sabotaging her fledgling company–and having an affair with her late husband.

When the ultra-chic Monica is caught at the scene of a murder, Laura is plenty happy to imagine her languishing in a prison cell with bedsheets far from her normal 600-thread Egyptian cotton. But her delight is short-lived.

When Laura's friends land on the police's radar, Laura must overcome her dislike of Monica to help solve the crime. Not an easy task since Laura and Monica have been at war since the second grade.

Review to follow when the book is released

An Interview With A Character

What is your full name?

Laura Bishop

What is your Profession?

Professional home stager and small business owner. I recently started Staging for You, a small home staging business. At the moment, Tyrone Webster, a young college student, is my only employee.

What is your current favourite book or movie?

It would be hard to pick just one book. I particularly enjoy mysteries with strong female characters in historical settings, especially those by Jacqueline Winspear, Charles Todd, Anna Lee Huber, and Frances Brody.

What is your go to comfort book or movie?

When I need a movie to comfort me, I turn to any romantic comedy with Meg Ryan, especially, “You’ve Got Mail,” “Sleepless in Seattle,” and “Kate and Leopold.” And if I really need a pick-me-up, the humor of “Galaxy Quest.”

If someone was to play you in a movie who would it be? OR what would be the character you would want to be in a book?

I would love to have Alison Sweeney, who stars in the Murder She Baked series on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries, play me. If she could bring along Cameron Mathison to play hunky police detective Alex Spangler, that would be even better. 

What is your ideal evening?

My ideal evening would be to curl up on the sofa with my black cat, Inky, cover myself (and Inky) with an Aran wool afghan, and leaf through decorating magazines for home staging ideas. If it’s a really cold night, I would build a fire, sip on a small glass of Harvey’s Bristol Cream Sherry to warm myself, and read a good mystery. Since I live alone and can easily get spooked, it would have to be a mystery that wouldn’t have me keeping the lights on after going to bed.
