Customer Reviews

Witty writing and charming characters...

This is a book I enjoyed from cover to cover, largely due to the author's fresh style and non-stop sense of humor. It was a pleasure getting to know her resilient protagonist, Jess Shore, and her engaging gaggle of friends and lovers. Even though I pegged the perp early, I was still surprised by the ending. This is a fast-paced, well-written mystery that left me anticipating a sequel.

Loved it, but.........

This book kept me interested. It fleshed out the characters well, gave pretty decent background, kept a good pace, and was a very good mystery. Loved Jess and Buster. Got more than a few chuckles, but.........as good as the book was, I felt let down in the last chapter. Is was as if Ms. Morris wanted to end the book in 225 pages or less, and she did. Would have liked to have read more about her relationship with Cat...oh, well, maybe next time. Still, a very good read.

A PI with endless quips!

Look out V.I. Warshawski, here comes Jessica George Shore-ex-Canadian cop turned PI. She not only flys her own plane but has a large canine sidekick named Buster. Jess Shore spends her time between Toronto and Provincetown and this book takes P-town by storm. When a popular restaurant owner is whacked into a coma, PI Jess needs to find out who did it. The book is fast-paced and the cast of characters and endless quips keep you chuckling while you read. The heroine is all too human right down to her committment avoidance and migraines. I left this one wanting to read more of the friends and family of Jess Shore.
