"Reminiscent of Stephanie Plum, Sofie is a wonderful character whose exploits are amusing,
offbeat, and a little dangerous. The writing duo Tori Carrington strikes gold with this sassy, sexy new series."
Romantic Times Book Club Magazine

"Carrington depicts Sofie's world with the nutty sweetness of baklava. With the focus on fun rather than blood,
this chick-lite mystery further develops Sophie's relationship with Jake Porter, the handy but possibly dangerous
Aussie bounty hunter, who adds just the right amount of delectable sexual tension to this crime confection."
Publishers Weekly

Sofie Metropolis is the newest P.I. on the mean streets of Astoria, Queens. She's known for her trademark frappes
and her itchy trigger finger.

Uncle Tolly was acting odd right before he disappeared. The proof? The brand-new Mercedes Tolly just bought. And
the business's books, which show that Uncle Tolly was laundering more than just clothes. Which is where the mob
comes in, in the darkly handsome figure of Tony DiPiazza. Tony's very taken with Sofie. Too bad she won't back off
the money-laundering and kidnapping (or is it murder?) investigation. Too bad she's too busy to notice the men in her
life because she's being attacked by a malevolent dry-cleaning bag, bailing Aglaia out of jail, and spying on her own
father. Sofie's quest for the truth gets her into hot waterand a pair of cement overshoes. It's not her best look.
