“The light-hearted mystery provides plenty of smiles and an occasional laugh out loud moment while also serving up serious crime fiction that will keep readers turning pages....Much of the fun is the twists and turns, the surprises that keep you reading as you try to figure out who done it and why.”

Praise for previous Eli Paxton novels: 

"Entertaining.... Lighthearted, but with a solid mystery, the book showcases Resnick's ability to tell stories economically and to create characters who feel real enough to step off the page."- Booklist
"Turn off your phones and make a pot of coffee and settle in with this book ... you are in for a race to the finish as Eli Paxton doggedly chases every confusing but tantalizing clue!... I recommend this fun read for your Summer book list." - MysteryNet
"Told in an amiable first-person narrative dripping with sarcasm, Resnick's engrossing puzzler...captures the essence of the antiheroic PI. Resnick...writes with a speculative tone that translates well to the detective genre. May there be more!" - Library Journal
