Publisher's Summary

It was a hell of a long shot....

CIA assassin Fortune Redding is about to undertake her most difficult mission ever - in Sinful, Louisiana. With a leak at the CIA and a price placed on her head by one of the world's largest arms dealers, Fortune has to go off-grid, but she never expected to be this far out of her element. Posing as a former beauty queen turned librarian in a small bayou town seems worse than death to Fortune, but she's determined to fly below the radar until her boss finds the leak and puts the arms dealer out of play.

Unfortunately, she hasn't even unpacked a suitcase before her newly inherited dog digs up a human bone in her backyard. Thrust into the middle of a bayou murder mystery, Fortune teams up with a couple of seemingly sweet old ladies whose looks completely belie their hold on the little town. To top things off, the handsome local deputy is asking her too many questions. If she's not careful, this investigation might blow her cover and get her killed. Armed with her considerable skills and a group of elderly ladies the locals dub the Geritol Mafia, Fortune has no choice but to solve the murder before it's too late.

Great friendship story

This is about the 4th time listening to this story and I loved it again. Each time it gets better. I crack myself laughing at Walter's comments about running from the alligators and the garbage bag incident. This story has great female friendships and strong female characters. The narrator does a great job with all the characters making it easy to distinguish between characters talking.

Enjoyable mystery

I was enthralled by this exciting thriller which started out a little slowly but soon dedeveloped into a complex murder mystery.

Fun!

Light story for those that don’t want to invest in anything too complex or cerebral. Likeable characters I’m looking forward to reading about again later in the series. Definitely want to listen to the rest of the Miss Fortune books!

Great move along story

I enjoyed the pace. The reader turned out to be a nice fit to the character she was supposed to be.
Relatively unpredictable story line full of interesting characters that avoided the wretched female place.
I always like a story I’m following on audio to not be too challenging or i miss vital sections owing to distractions but i prefer the whole thing to not be a bunch of boring cliches and so this s tory satisfied admirably. Entertaining

Engaging, unexpected, interesting and humorous story.

The characters and their interactions are really enjoyable, and the premise of the novel is certainly different.
