Mystery Woman Sleuth
"Living in L.A. is like no other place on earth. And for
recently divorced, thirty-year-old Tucker Sinclair, whose
current domestic arrangements include sharing her just-
north of Malibu Beach cottage with her actress mother,
Pookie, and Pookie's annoying twenty-pound West Highland
terrier, Muldoon, life can be positively surreal." "A
senior manager on the fast track for a partnership at
Aames & Associates, Tucker is doing everything from
financial face-lifts to red-ink bypasses, when a certain
neurologist comes by with what could be the deal-maker of
her career. All she has to do is write a simple business
plan that will entice investors to fund Dr. Milton Polk's
grandiose expansion schemes." "Then, just as the project
starts to take off, her files on Polk disappear, the good
doctor himself vanishes, and Tucker finds herself accused
of bilking L.A.'s moneymen out of millions of dollars. Add
a washed-up corpse on Venice Beach and a sexy detective
sniffing for clues and Tucker is suddenly scrambling to
save her reputation and career." With a bunch of pissed-
off investors on her tail, she hits the road in her silver
Porsche - a legacy from her ex - trying to figure out who
set her up. Out there somewhere is someone who aims to
swindle her out of something far more precious than her
job. To outfox an unscrupulous murderer gunning for the
highest stakes, Tucker will have to sharpen all her skills
to survive the deadly jungle of spreadsheets and business
models. For if she fails, this deal-maker will be a done
deal.
