The Style & Error Mysteries, also published as the Samantha Kidd Mystery series, follow a fashion-industry professional who repeatedly finds herself tangled up in criminal cases. The series launched with Designer Dirty Laundry in 2012 and has grown to 19 books, with the most recent entry, Murder Italian Style, arriving in 2025.
Diane Vallere draws on her own fashion-industry experience to build a world filled with designer labels, retail drama, and amateur sleuthing. Samantha Kidd is a witty, resourceful protagonist whose personal and professional life provides the backdrop for each mystery.
