Book 3

Murdered in Monterosso

Angel Doyle, semi-reformed thief and accidental P.I., is back for a third electrifying adventure.

Angel and her friend and sidekick, Sidney, are ecstatic to fly to Florida for a six-month P.I. boot camp. They’ll finally become licensed team members of the Omega Group, the super-secret international P.I. agency co-run by Angel’s mother, former adult movie actress Desirée Chablis.

On the way to the airport, Angel receives a message from her estranged brother. He’s in mortal danger, and she’s the only person who can save him. Apart from the name of an Italian town, Angel has no idea where to find him, or what mess he’s landed himself in this time. She’s forced to decide between fulfilling her dream and saving her brother.

Can Angel make it to Italy, save her brother, and back in time for the first day of her course? Or will murderous hijinks (and Sidney’s love of gelato) slow them down?
