Sacred Cows
Anne Seymour is a reporter working the case of a dead college girl who moonlighted for an escort service. Following the trail to her regular customers leads Anne into a web of crooked city employees, laundered money, and a connection that's a little too close to home.
Complicating Anne's personal and professional life are a tenacious cub reporter, her meddling lawyer mother, a hot private investigator, and her long-term boyfriend who happens to be the lead investigator on the girl's death.
I generally like to take notes while I read a book. How else can I remember the important stuff when it can be a year or two between series entries? This book was moving so fast with twists and turns everywhere that I completely forgot to write anything down.
Karen E Olson has created a smart, witty, lovable character who depite her faults, worms her way right into your heart. She is just snoopy enough, just careful enough, and just cynical enough to be realistic. I'd take her out for white clam pizza anytime.
The second book in this series will be out in September. It is called Secondhand Smoke.
