Summary

From New York Times best seller, Rebecca Cantrell and international thriller sensation, Sean Black, comes the first novel in a fast-paced, funny new series that's perfect for fans of Janet Evanovich and Sue Grafton.

After a decade spent in the glare of the Hollywood spotlight as the star of kids' TV show Half Pint Detective, Sofia Salgado has had enough. Desperate to build a life outside showbiz, she quits acting to do something that everyone around her - including her family - thinks is plain nuts. Get a real job.

They think she's even crazier when she announces that she's going to become a real detective, instead of playing one on TV. She's convinced the technical consultant from her TV show, Brendan Maloney, to take her on in his detective agency, but can accident-prone Sofia hack it?

Slow and Uninteresting!

If this has been recommended as in the same wheelhouse as the Stephanie Plum series, and you’re choosing it based on that - don’t!! It’s NOTHING like it, so you will be really disappointed and will do this book a disservice.

It’s a slow moving (13 chapters to get to the point) story, with nothing remarkable about methodology, style, finesse …

I bought this via Kindle Unlimited, but I wouldn’t have said that it was £3 well spent! I’d categorise this as a Cozy Mystery, but even that’s not quite the truth.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
