Desiree Shapiro, New York PI, is no hard-boiled shamus.
She has dimples in her knees, elbows, and some
unmentionable places. Desiree is a chubby gumshoe who has
a mind as sharp as a Cuisinart and a queen-sized talent
for
sleuthing. Her heart is pretty big, too, which is why she
agrees to take the case of the poor grocery kid accused of
killing the old lady in apartment 15D for the money
stashed
in her freezer. Sure, the boy’s fingerprints on the
refrigerator make the problem sticky…but only until
there’s
yet another murder in the same building. Before anyone
can
say Haagen-Dazs, Desiree bets she will be able to finger
the real killer. She’s detoured by dinner with a
bachelor,
but he, unfortunately, turns into a suspect. So while her
love life is chilling out, Desiree cooks up a scheme to
trap a lean, mean, decidedly unsavory killer. And we
won’t
deny it—this is just the first, on a complete menu of
sizzling murder mysteries to feature the full-figured and
funny Desiree Shapiro.
