O ovoj e-knjizi
Can Samantha keep calm and carry on?
Samantha Kidd is gobsmacked by the wins in her life. Steady job: check. Great guy: check. Inner peace: closer than she’s been in a while. But when the British invasion arrives in the form of new business owners, her checked boxes tumble. Her retail employer sells out, her coworkers go on strike, and her husband is out of the country.
When a union representative is found dead outside the store, the bottom falls out. Samantha’s reluctant mentor, Detective Loncar, warns her to stay out of the investigation, but even he has something to hide. Between a cop bar, a life coach, and a blue line that's anything but thin, Samantha's teacup runneth over. It’s time for Samantha to spill some tea…or risk being royally screwed.
National bestselling author Diane Vallere brings you British style in this humorous edgy cozy mystery featuring amateur detective Samantha Kidd. Union Jacked is the ninth in the Killer Fashion mystery series, although each book can be read as a standalone. For fans of Jess Lourey, Donna Andrews, and Ellen Byron, if you like cop drama, and secrets from the past, and poking fun at England, then you’ll love this hilarious mystery.
Diane-Fans describe “her vintage Vallere goodness,” and say she is a “great storyteller” with “a way with creating strong female characters and intrigue” who is “a superb and very humorous writer.” Her gift of creating “spunky sleuths in fun settings” take readers to Dallas, Palm Springs, Los Angeles, Pennsylvania, and outer space.
