What if the evil boss you fantasized about murdering actually wound up… dead?

Mobster Grit meets Girl Power.

The master of Feminist Noir and award winning author, Kelly Oliver serves up an irreverent murder mystery with flavors of hard-boiled mobster grit, a dash of romance, and a big dollop of girl power, along with a fierce female lead readers adore. Endearingly awkward, Jessica James is a brilliant philosopher who’s much more than curious–she’s fearless. Plus there’s Jesse’s ragtag posse–Amber, the tech-savvy hippie, Jack, a wisecracking stoner, and Lolita, the seductive “poker Tsarina”–as the icing on the cake.

Smart, capable women shine in this cast.
Jessica wants only to defend her thesis and earn her degree. But when she discovers her advisor’s dead body in a bathtub, she becomes entangled in a web of lies, secrets, mystery, and murder and her only way out is through.

Enter Dmitry, university janitor and former-heir to The Oxford Don’s Russian mafia syndicate. At the age of eighteen, Dmitry cut ties with his family and fled his homeland with two of his father’s most prized possessions–Russian paintings valued at several million dollars apiece. He’s kept a low profile for decades, but after the Wolf’s death, his wife and daughter’s lives are at stake.

Can Jessica and Dmitry team up to catch a killer before they become his next victims?
