Shop Till You Drop
ByPublisher Description
Author Elaine Viets kicks off this
When unlikely sleuth Helen Hawthorne flees St. Louis, she fetches up in Fort Lauderdale, suddenly surrounded by the beautiful and the Botoxed.
They all shop at the same place—Juliana's, the overpriced boutique where Helen works. And
It's a dead-end job with no perks—but one that pays in cash.
Juliana's holds
The good news is there's a reward—and Helen needs money. The bad is that she could die before she collects it.
Readers will find Helen
—an ordinary woman squeezed by circumstance, feeling her way as she takes control of her life whatever way she has to do it, innocent yet growing savvier by the second. You root hard for her as she settles into the role of amateur detective because you just can't help identifying with her and hoping you'd rise to the occasion as well. And
Fans of everywoman heroines like those created by Joanna Campbell Slan, Donna Andrews, Joanne Fluke, CeeCee James, Jana DeLeon, and Janet Evanovich will fall in love with this plucky investigator. And they can settle in for a long and beautiful relationship.
