Sex, Murder and a Double Latte
Author: Kyra Davis
Genre: Mystery, Fiction, Romance
Pages: 336
Released: 2005
Book Summary:
When a mystery writer cries bloody murder, everyone blames her overactive imagination…
Thriller scribe Sophie Katz is as hard-boiled as a woman who drinks Grande Caramel Brownie Frappuccinos can be. So Sophie knows it’s not paranoia or post-divorce, living-alone-again jitters when she becomes convinced that a crazed reader is sneaking into her apartment to reenact scenes from her books. The police can’t tell a good plot from an unmarked grave.
When a filmmaker friend is brutally murdered in the manner of a death scene in one of his movies, Sophie becomes convinced that a copycat killer is on the loose —and that she’s the next target. Her bestseller will spell out her doom if she doesn’t solve the mystery. Cursing her grisly imagination (why did she have to pick the ax?), Sophie engages in some real-life gumshoe tactics. The man who swoops in to save her in dark alleys is mysterious new love interest Anatoly Darinsky. Of course, if this were fiction, Anatoly would be her prime suspect.…
Heather’s Review:
I found this book entertaining and easy to read from cover to cover. I loved the humor and suspense and found the characters relatable. I especially love that the main character is half-black, half-Jewish! As soon as I was finished, I ordered the next book, Passion, Betrayal, and Killer Highlights.
I give Sex, Murder and a Double Latte by Kyra Davis 4 out of 5 stars.
