    Alex never expected her post-FBI life to involve barcode scanners and retail strategy meetings, but working for POSS—Point of Sale Strategies—was supposed to be quiet. Normal. Safe. 
    That illusion shatters when Pinky Fingers Morales, mid-level thug with a taste for loud shirts and louder crimes, turns up dead… minus his trademark digits. 
    Worse, all signs point to Paul, Alex’s smug co-worker with suspicious access to sensitive files—and even more suspicious ties to the infamous Giodorno gang. Toss in Ronnie, Alex’s maddeningly charming ex-boyfriend with a murky agenda and a habit of showing up when bullets fly, and Alex finds herself in a tangled mess of secrets, betrayal, and criminal ambition. 
    Was Ronnie trying to take over the Giodorno operation? Did he put Paul up to murder? Or is there an even bigger play behind the curtain? 
    Armed with a sharp mind and a dry wit, Alex dives into a dangerous game of cat and mouse to expose the imposter before she becomes the next target. 
    The Imposter blends high-stakes crime with snarky charm in a mystery where everyone’s got secrets—and nobody’s who they claim to be. Clean, hard-boiled, short cozy mystery.

    A totally gripping thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat 
     
     
     
    Max Donovan, a man who uses his knowledge of far-flung corners of the earth and a fair bit of muscle to "fix things," is relaxing by the sea in Senegal. 
     
     
     
    But his much-needed holiday after a botched operation in Malaysia, where he broke more than he fixed, is abruptly interrupted when a man is knifed on the beach. 
     
     
     
    When Donovan makes chase, the killer steals his car. Not a wise move. Donovan is now motivated to hunt him down. His curiosity has got the better of him, anyway. 
     
     
     
    His adversary is a hitman who has traveled to Senegal to fix a few things of his own. No stranger to danger, he is closing in for another kill. 
     
     
     
    The thrilling game of cat-and-mouse that ensues leaves the busy markets and bars of Dakar and heads into tropical forests and arid savannah, where poachers, smugglers, crocs, and lions, are all waiting to pounce. 
     
     
     
    Will Donovan get his man or has he met his match?
