Book Explosions discussion

I read book one in this series some time back and thoroughly enjoyed it, and when I was asked review book 2, I eagerly agreed. Kate McCall is an off-Broadway actress who inherited her father’s private detective business and suddenly she found herself in the P.I. business. Her life is complicated and rather eccentric to begin with, so adding this new career only complicates things. Her father was murdered in a rather heinous manner (book 1) and she can’t stop thinking about catching his killer. When an incredibly beautiful woman hires her to find out whose stolen her identity, things get even more complicated, especially since this woman knows exactly who the culprit is. Add in her district attorney son, who’s very unhappy with her pursuits as a detective and a police detective who’s already got it in for her and it’s a recipe for disaster.

This is very well written and witty story, the characters are fun and completely insane and everything in-between.

I only have one complaint, and perhaps it’s a bit petty, but it did grate on me—when the author identifies what everybody is wearing it always starts off with “she wore” or “he wore” and since there are lot of characters and they’re always changing their clothes…it got a bit tedious (although not enough to stop me from putting the book down – everything else was just too enjoyable).

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. See all our reviews at our Book Explosions page on Goodreads.
