About this ebook

New York Times-Bestselling Author: A PI-in-training gets drawn into a dysfunctional family fighting over money and murder…
 
Some days are just weird city. Take today. Jane Kelly, thirtysomething ex-bartender, current process server, and owner of The Binkster, a pug, is dutifully putting in slave-labor hours working for Dwayne Durbin, local “information specialist” (i.e., private investigator), and on the road to becoming a P.I. herself. Next thing she knows she’s socializing with the Purcells, a rich, eccentric family with a penchant for going crazy and/or dying in spectacularly mysterious ways.

From what Jane can tell, the Purcells all want Orchid Purcell’s money. And when Orchid turns up in a pool of blood, the free-for-all has just begun. Then when Jane finds a second body, it seems weird city is about to get even weirder—and a lot more deadly…

In her second smash outing, Nancy Bush's wickedly funny heroine, Jane Kelly, proves herself a worthy successor to Stephanie Plum, but with a wit, style, and dog that are definitely all her own.

“With her clever ability to handle the zaniest of life’s circumstances, Jane won’t disappoint readers.”—Publishers Weekly
 
“Move over Stephanie Plum, Jane Kelly has arrived!”—Lisa Jackson, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of You Betrayed Me
 
“[A] funny, feisty, immensely likable new heroine.”—Laura Levine, author of Death of a Gigolo

Ratings and reviews

Many people will compare this series to the Stephanie Plum Series but I like Jane Kelly better. I mostly like the sense of humor Nancy Bush gives the character and she made Jane independent with a potential love interest in Duane. The interactions Jane has with her family (her brother Booth and mother), her best friend Cynthia and her job has a comfortable feel as if you know these people. If you are interested in light mysteries, I would recommend this series.

Pretty, entertaining with the interaction of characters. Predictable but better than Candy Apple Red.

Good
