About this ebook
A femme fatale flirts with foul play in the series that “bring[s] back the 1950s in a good-natured and rather innocent way” (Mystery Scene Magazine).
Shell Scott. He's a guy with a pistol in his pocket and murder on his mind. The crime world's public enemy number one, this Casanova is a sucker for a damsel in distress. When a pair of lovely legs saunters into his office, he can't help but take the job, even when the case is a killer. Martinique was a cool, creamy piece of dynamite with a ten-second fuse and an I.Q. around one hundred sixty. Those were numbers Shell Scott liked to play--except in her case they seemed to add up to murder.
The Sweet Ride is the 38th book in the Shell Scott Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
