However, her good intentions put the distressed victim on the edge of even greater torment and the sadistic boss decides to teach Jill a lesson she'll never forget. "Brilliant... different from the usual Sandy Reid novels. But still an interesting read with a new heroin... different characters to the story but all had an interesting part to play. What a great ending. Please more of the same Mr Hoisington." ~ A. Wilkin "I like mysteries.... I like romance! Help me figure out what to read next." The novels in the Sandy Reid Women Sleuths Mystery Romance series are fast-paced mysteries with a span of troubled romance; written in a compelling soft-boiled style you'll find enjoyable if you're tired of the usual formula mysteries. Neither Chick Lit nor Cozy, soft-boiled means it's gritty, on the edge and at times risqué, and you can count on some murders being in there--but you don't have to read about the gruesome details. It will get suspenseful along the way, but eventually the female protagonist will get all the puzzle pieces put together, will restore order and we'll all be safe once again. Female sleuths seldom carry a gun, but nevertheless aren't intimated by bad guys. Bullets don't bounce off them, but threats, assaults and insults invariably produce a toxic response. Why should men have all the fun? Rod Hoisington lives in Florida, where he devotes full-time to his compulsion to dig into the souls and lives of fictional characters. He is the author of Sandy Reid Mystery Romance series.
