Mystery Private Eye
“New York PI Desiree Shapiro, the plump, all-too-human
heroine of Eichler’s mouthwatering mystery
series...pleases
the palate.”—Publishers Weekly No one can say that Desiree Shapiro, New York’s chubbiest
PI, isn’t a soft touch. That’s why when teenager Vicky
Pirrelli wants to find out who really killed her father’s
mistress —a crime for which he went to jail—Desiree
decides
to ignore all the reasons she’d have to be crazy to take
the case. The murder occurred a decade ago, on the eve of
Vicky’s sixth birthday, so it’s almost certain the
evidence
will be tainted or even nonexistent. The truth won’t help
Victor Pirrelli, who died in prison two weeks earlier, and
Desiree has been assured that she’ll be adequately
compensated for her services with Vicky’s baby-sitting
money. Still, Desiree agrees to look into things—and
promptly comes up with four suspects, including her young
client’s own mother!
Meanwhile, Desiree’s personal life isn’t going so well.
The
man who could be her new love has a malicious nine-year-
old
son. And it’s apparent that the little *#!!$%!# wouldn’t
mind doing to Desiree what someone did to Victor’s
mistress….
“Finally, there’s a private eye we can embrace—she doesn’t
jog, she doesn’t know karate, and she doesn’t pass a
bakery
without a slight detour.”—Joan Hess INCLUDES A TASTY NEW RECIPE FROM DESIREE SHAPIRO!
