Former
skip tracer PJ Smythe now works for her uncle as an
investigator at Catham Confidential Investigators. Her
roommate, Yolanda Branson, works there too as legal
counsel. They have returned from the funeral of a friend,
Kate O’Reilly. Yolanda is freaking out because
her last few roommates have all died in car crashes.
Just like Kate O’Reilly! Yolanda gives Kate’s
mother a necklace worth a lot of money at the funeral.
A
gorilla of a man gets into the apartment while PJ is
there and he says he is looking for Gail Barton. Things
are broken and PJ gets away. Outside the apartment -
she sees Yolanda in her yellow suit with the gorilla
man. A split second later…. she is gone. Now PJ
can’t get in touch with Yolanda and the newspaper
has an article on a dead body found.
PJ
decides to use her work resources to check out this
Gail Barton person. Let’s hope that what PJ finds
out doesn’t put her into more danger.
Things
to ponder: Who is Gail Barton? Why wasn’t PJ’s
room tossed?
This
book was a very fast read. It packed a punch. This is
the first book I have read by Carolyn Taylor –
I can tell you now it will not be my last. The only
reason I took a break from reading this book was to
catch my breath. So if you like your mystery blinged
out – then this is one book you should read.
