The sixth installment of the critically acclaimed, New York
Times bestselling, Edgar- and Macavity-nominated and Alex
Award-winning series by Lisa Lutz, finds our intrepid
heroine of the series, Isabel Spellman, PI, at a crossroads.
Izzy is used to being followed, extorted, and questioned—all
occupational hazards of working at her family’s firm,
Spellman Investigations. Her little sister, Rae, once tailed
Izzy for weeks on end to discover the identity of Izzy’s
boyfriend. Her mother, Olivia, once blackmailed Izzy with
photographic evidence of Prom Night 1994. It seemed that
Spellman vigilance would dissipate after Izzy was fired for
breaching client confidentiality, but then Izzy avenged her
dismissal by staging a hostile takeover of the company. She
should have known better than to think she could put such
shenanigans behind her.
In The Last Word, Izzy’s troubles are just beginning. After
her takeover of Spellman Investigations, her employees are
the furthest thing from collegial...and Izzy finds herself
struggling to pay the bills. But when she is accused of
embezzling from a former client, the ridiculously wealthy
Mr. Slayter, the stakes become immense. If Izzy gets
indicted, she could lose her PI license and the Spellman
family’s livelihood, not to mention her own freedom. Is this
the end of Izzy Spellman, PI?
The Last Word is, hands down, the most powerful book in the
bestselling, award-nominated Spellman series.
