Agatha Award finalist for Best First Novel: This "engaging" mystery starring a suburban single mom "will leave readers eager for the next installment." —Publishers Weekly
Suburban widow and PI in training Nicki Valentine can barely keep track of her two kids, never mind anyone else. But when her best friend's adoption plan is jeopardized by the young birth mother's disappearance, Nicki is persuaded to help. Nearly everyone else believes the teenager ran away, but Nicki trusts her BFF's judgment, and the feeling is mutual.
The case leads where few moms go (teen parties, gang shootings) and places they can't avoid (preschool parties, OB-GYNs' offices). Nicki has everything to lose and much to gain —including the attention of her unnervingly hot PI instructor. Thankfully, Nicki is armed with her pesky conscience, occasional babysitters, a fully stocked minivan, and nature's best defense system: women's intuition.
"Has a heart and soul and the minute I started reading it, I knew it was something special." —Maggie Barbieri, author of Once Upon a Lie
"One of the most warm-hearted yet realistic cozies I've ever had the pleasure of reading." —Mystery Scene
