Mystery
A romp of a publishing mystery that introduces Jo Donovan, literary agent-cum-detective, that will delight fans of Janet Evanovich, Lisa Lutz, Alan Bradley, and ABC's Castle Jo Donovan always manages to come out on top. From the backwoods of Appalachia, she forged a hard path to life among the literati in New York City. At thirty-five, sheΓ’β¬β’s the widow of the renowned author Hugo Donovan and the owner of one of the best literary agencies in town. Jo is living the life she dreamed of but itΓ’β¬β’s all about to fall apart. When a would-be client turns stalker, Jo is more angry than shaken until her clients come under attack. Meanwhile, a biography of Hugo Donovan is in the works and the authorΓ’β¬β’s digging threatens to destroy the foundations of JoΓ’β¬β’s carefully constructed life. As the web of suspicion grows wider and her stalker ups the ante, sheΓ’β¬β’s persuaded by her client and friendΓ’β¬βFBI profiler-turned-bestselling-thriller writerΓ’β¬βto go to the police. There Jo finds herself face-to-face with an old flame: the handsome Tommy Cullen, now NYPD detective. A Dangerous Fiction marks the welcome return of Barbara Rogan and the start of a terrific new series.
