Mystery Woman Sleuth

No one is more surprised than Gigi Goldman when Heather-Anne Pawlusik comes into the office where Gigi works. Heather- Anne wants to hire their agency to find out where Les went. Charlie is recuperating from a gun shot wound and Gigi knows that business is slow so she reluctantly takes the case. After all the tramp ran away with Gigi's ex-husband, Les.

Les took all the money he'd scammed and disappeared. Leaving Gigi and her children heartbroken and broke. Gigi is getting therapy for her shopping addiction from a friend and the only reason she has a job is because Les owns part of Charlie's company and Charlie felt sorry for her.

Bored with recuperating, Charlie welcomes the chance to dig into the investigation. What she learns will make Les' crimes seem the lesser of two evils.

Gigi has really learned some things in her job since she manages to discover Les where he is hiding until he slips away again. With Gigi and Charlie working as a team, they will capture Les, find a killer and discover where Les hidden his money.

SWIFT RUN is a rather complicated tale that investigates so much more than just the disappearance of Gigi's husband, Ms. DiSilverio tells her tale with a deft hand and some humorous situations.

SUMMARY

With Charlie convalescing from a gunshot wound, Gigi is temporarily running Swift Investigations when Heather- Anne Pawlusik, the tramp who ran off with Gigi’s husband, Les, saunters into the office. Heather-Anne wants to hire the firm to find Les, missing from their love nest in Costa Rica. Gigi tells her to am-scray, but the lure of a paying client is too much, and Les is the father of her children, so she accepts the case, against Charlie’s advice.

Attuned to her embezzling ex’s habits, Gigi tracks down Les but he quickly loses her. When a body turns up, the cops start measuring Gigi for a prison jumpsuit, so she and Charlie frantically hunt for Les and dig into Heather- Anne’s mysterious past because orange isn’t Gigi’s color. What Gigi discovers, not only about Les, but about herself and her feelings for him, surprises her as much as the killer’s identity.

Swift Run, Laura DiSilverio’s third novel in this entertaining and original series, is a thrilling and hilarious romp. Readers will enjoy spending time with this engaging crime-fighting duo.
