Homemade Sin - A Callahan Garrity Mystery

Zusatztext “Women will like her distinctively female flavor to detecting. She’s not afraid to ask for help or direction.” Informationen zum Autor Mary Kay Andrews is the New York Times bestselling author of 30 novels and The Beach House Cookbook . A former reporter for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution , she lives in Atlanta, Georgia. Klappentext Callahan Garrity is the owner of House Mouse, a cleaning service that tidies up after Atlanta's elite. She's also a former cop and a part-time sleuth. She and her coterie of devoted helpers can ransack a house for clues faster than it takes a fingerprint to set. Some people might call Callahan Garrity nosy, but she prefers to think of her tendency toward snooping as a healthy interest in the truth.

It's not that she doesn't have confidence in the Atlanta police—she used to be among their ranks—but the crime is too incongruous with Patti's suburban life to seem like a random incident.
