The first in Jaffarian’s Odelia Grey Mystery series, Too Big to Miss, is a Bronze Medal winner for the 2007 Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPYs). Her Odelia Grey books are consistently reviewed favorably in prominent book industry publications—receiving a starred review in Library Journal—and national mystery magazines such as The Strand and Mystery Scene. Odelia Grey books have also been lauded in the New York Times, optioned for film/TV rights, and advocated by New York Times bestselling author Lee Child and Emmy award-winning actress and plus-size women activist Camryn Manheim.

The ever-growing praise for Jaffarian’s one-of-a-kind, plus-size sleuth has garnered a recommendation for reading in national plus-size woman’s magazine figure and elite recognition from the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association (IMBA).
