Obsession, Deceit and Really Dark Chocolate

By Kyra Davis

Book Overview

Sophie Katz's relationship with the irresistible and occasionally insufferable P.I. Anatoly Darinsky is on the fritz when a friend recruits Sophie's investigation skills to decode her possibly two-timing husband's strange behavior. When Sophie shows up in a short, red cocktail dress and her friend's hubby winds up dead, the loveable would-be sleuth can't help but take on the job. Suddenly plunged into a crazy world of campaign mudslinging, dirt-digging and cover-ups, Sophie begins to uncover some pretty dirty secrets indeed-- involving a conservative congressional hopeful's involvement in the Furry community, a group of people who dress up in mascot-size stuffed animal costumes. Sex and politics, wouldn't you know? Way in over her head as usual, Sophie reluctantly--or not-so-reluctantly-- enlists the help of her two-time sidekick and ex--Anatoly. Together they set out to determine who killed Eugene and why, and in the process can't resist falling for each other--again?

Customer Reviews

Be careful with these reviews!

First, be careful with these reviews, because some of the reviews appearing on this page are for a book called "GUILTY FEET." There is is no "Jo" or "Dan" in this book. Fortunately for us, this book is all about Sophie and Anatoly. I am so glad Kyra Davis is still writing, and I hope she keeps it up! I really like Sophie's adventures, and I love reading about a multicultural heroine -- I need a break from the blond-haired,...

I couldn't put it down!!

I've once again seen a lot of reviews not about the book that is on this page. o_0. My review will be about THIS book though. Great book! It was almost as good as the first book, and way better than the second. I loved the plot twists and turns this book had. Some of the book was even laugh out loud funny. Ms. Davis has yet another hit on her hands with this one. A must read!!

A blast as always!

Kyra Davis never disappoints! Obsession, Deceit, and Really Dark Chocolate is no exception. The suspense is fantastic and surprises abound as you read through this fast paced book. I devoured the whole thing in less than twenty four hours, not for lack of content but only because I couldn't put it down. At times I laughed loudly, maybe a little too loudly, as I tried to explain to my other half what could make me bellow...

#3 hits the mark

I've read all of Kyra Davis' books and have enjoyed them all. This is the third in the Sophie Katz series and Davis is not letting us down. She keeps the fun as well as the mystery, romance and the adreneline going. It's a well written and quite a delightful page turner with Davis' signature quirky characters. This one has an interesting and funny quasy political plot and a facinating look into a what might be called by...
