  DUMPSTER DIVING FOR HER LOST PAYCHECK IS DEFINITELY THE LOW POINT OF KIKI LOWENSTEIN'S DAY—THAT IS, UNTIL SHE FINDS A SEVERED LEG IN THE TRASH. 
   
   
   
  Who'd toss a body part in the garbage outside of Time in a Bottle, the crafts store where Kiki works? 
   
   
   
  Accompanying the grisly "gift" is a creepy computerized voice message, a warning to the store's "rich and snotty" female shoppers. Kiki soon discovers that the amputated leg belonged to a customer with a tyrannical and violent husband, a powerful man in the community. And that jerk is now harassing Kiki. 
   
   
   
  Kiki decides she's had enough. She can't wait passively on the sidelines. Combing through the customer's scrapbook projects for hidden clues, Kiki takes it on herself to find the killer. 
   
   
   
  Meanwhile, drama inside the crafts store builds to a fevered pitch. Kiki keeps trying to make friends with her new co-worker. Why is the other girl so stand-offish? Kiki's feelings and her ego are wounded. In fact, the pain is deep enough to lead Kiki into temptation. And that brings out the worst in our spunky heroine. Can Kiki make amends in time to save her job? And figure out whether her abused customer is missing in action or dead as a doornail?

  F*ck It isn't just the name of her favorite smoothie—it's also Verona Montero's approach to murder investigations. 
    
  Verona Montero loves calling herself a private dick because it makes her sound like she’s in a 1940s detective movie. And it means she gets to say “dick” a lot. So when Miami—a walking Barbie doll with an emoji addiction and bikinis smaller than Verona's patience—needs proof her billionaire husband Javier is cheating, Verona's all over it. Especially when it means working with divorce lawyer Quentin, whose cologne gives her what she professionally diagnoses as “crotch headaches.” 
    
  Then bam—Javier turns up dead in Greece, and suddenly Miami's vacant blue eyes are staring down a murder charge. Her manicured fingers might end up smudging prison bars unless Verona can prove the bombshell doesn't have the brainpower to pull off premeditated murder. With her client's billions at stake and a hefty retainer padding her bank account, Verona's jetting to Mykonos faster than you can say “Dark and Stormy.” 
    
  Between conning hotel staff, interrogating sexy bartenders, and recruiting a drag queen to go undercover in a secret sex club, mounting evidence suggests that the wrong person might be taking the fall. Now Verona’s facing her toughest moral dilemma yet: pursue justice for a dead predator, or let a killer with excellent taste in victims walk free. 
    
  If you love your mysteries with enough F-bombs to make a sailor blush, this wickedly funny whodunit delivers the goods. Perfect for fans of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series and Elle Cosimano’s Finlay Donovan series.

  There is something about the number 3.  
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.
