positively Evanovich-esque
I had a hard time putting down this book! Marty is a funny leading character whose snarky inner voice adds a lot of humor. Right when you assume something is going to happen, you’re thrown a plot twist.
If you’ve enjoyed Carl Hiassen books like Razor Girl or Bad Monkey, this should be a must read” for you! It’s a modern high-tech thriller with great human insights.
Lots of plot twists. A great depiction of life in Silicon Valley, the craziness and speed and some ruthlessness, but with a kind eye. Resembles the #1 Ladies’ Detective Agency series
This was exactly the kind of book I was in the mood for — a light-hearted, funny mystery. If you want a fun, snappy mystery, this is a great book.
