BOOK BLURB

When Julia Mann, a bad-tempered ex-actress and professional thorn in the side of authority, runs into Natasha Mason at an AA meeting, it’s anything but a meet-cute. Julia just found a dead body in her swimming pool, and the cops say she did it (she already went to jail for murder once, so now they think she’s making a habit of it). Mason is eager to clear Julia’s name and help keep her sober, but all Julia wants is for Mason to leave her alone.

As their investigation ranges from the Hollywood Hills to the world of burlesque to the country clubs of Palm Springs, this unconventional team realizes their shared love of sarcasm and poor life choices are proving to be a powerful combination. Will secrets from their past trip them up, or will their team of showgirls, cat burglars, and Hollywood agents help them stay one step ahead? Are dead piranhas, false noses, and a giant martini glass important clues or simply your typical day in Los Angeles? And will they manage to solve the crime before they kill each other, or worse, fall off the wagon? Trying to keep it simple and take it easy is one thing—trying to find a murderer before they kill again is a whole other program.

MY REVIEW

Julia is a former actress who recently found a dead body in her pool, and is suspected of murder. Mason is a young woman figuring out what she wants in life. When they show up at the same AA meeting, Mason offers to be Julia’s sponsor. Julia is not keen on the idea, but goes along with it. Mason is determined to prove Julia’s innocence, and the adventure begins.

One Death at a Time is a light and fun mystery. Sharp and snarky characters, and a fast-paced plot make for an entertaining read.

I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
