About this ebook

A rollicking cozy mystery series from USA Today bestselling author A.W. Hartoin. For fans of Janet Evanovich, Tricia O'Malley, and Jana DeLeon...

Would you commit a crime to save a child?

Mercy Watts is off to Colorado for a ski trip with her boyfriend and his parents. She thinks her biggest problem will be pretending to be a normal girlfriend. A girlfriend that doesn't know how to pick locks and absolutely never gets her face on the national news.

But a desperate friend asks a favor that cannot be refused. A child in St. Louis is in desperate need of a drug that can only be found in Colorado. The problem? It’s illegal in Missouri. The math works for Mercy and she figures she can fit a little smuggling in between trips up the lift and dips in the hot tub. Simple, right? Not quite.

Before she has a chance to do much of anything, a brutal crime is committed and Mercy becomes a suspect. The cops are all over her and now she's saddled with a pint-sized partner, a stalker, and a ticking clock. All she has to do is solve a crime in order to commit a crime. A child's life hangs in the balance. No pressure.

Ratings and reviews

Another fun Mercy Watts mystery. There's still a little too much of everyone else--I love a kooky family as much as the next person, but there's a balance to be struck. I'm reading for Mercy, not Aaron or Uncle Morty. There are several editing mistakes in this novel. They weren't enough to ruin it for me, but they were distracting when they popped up.

Awesome! Hard to put down!

Loved the quirky characters.
