Mystery Cozy
Since her four-month-old son was born, Juliet hasn't slept
for more than fifteen minutes at a stretch. (Has she given
birth to some sort of mutant vampire? She's beginning to
wonder.) It's been ages since she took her 3-year-old
daughter to the park (just one more reason why she's a
front-runner for the Worst Mother of the Year Award). Her
workaholic husband is spending way too much time with his
perky, oh-so-pretty producing partner. (Juliet is sure her
own post-pregnancy pounds are at least partly to blame.)
She's started answering the door topless (don't even ask).
And now her son's babysitter--a beautiful young Hasidic
woman--has vanished.
Juliet can't help wondering if Fraydle was fleeing
something even scarier than her screaming, squalling
charge. Like her upcoming arranged marriage, maybe? It's
certainly possible. Especially since Juliet saw her
furtively chatting with a non-Hasidic man shortly before
she disappeared. Or perhaps something more sinister has
occurred. Why else would Fraydle's family be so reluctant
to call in the police? To find out the truth, Juliet, with
her overtired kids in tow, will have to travel from her
havoc-filled home in Los Angeles to a Hasidic enclave in
Brooklyn. In search of answers. In pursuit of justice. And
in desperate need of a big, long, nap.
