WINNER OF THE KINDLE BOOK REVIEW READER'S CHOICE AWARD New York, 1943. Betty Jones is a femme fatale hidden in plain sight who moonlights as a housewife, Avon lady, and mother of two as she wages war with a powerful crime syndicate.

Betty has a dark past, which she paints away each day with Avon cosmetics and a bright smile. She's created a new life with her picture-perfect family, but old scars are beginning to itch.

When a series of heists leave a trail of dead soldiers and missing military cargo, Betty recognizes the calling card of her past demons. Blessed with gifts that make her more than human, Betty is unable to live with the continuing existence of the people who once ruined her, so she embarks on a cold-blooded vigilante mission to be rid of them once and for all. But the past is catching up to her, and Betty's perfect life is beginning to crack.

In the seedy underworld of 1940s New York, revenge tastes like cherry pie with a side of lipstick and perfume. This Avon Lady has murder on her mind, and it won't be pretty...

About this SeriesSet against the backdrop of World War 2 in New York City, this series features an unlikely heroine that you'll fall in love with. You can find continuing new releases for this series on Amazon.

For fans of Kerry Greenwood's Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries , classic Film Noir like Raymond Chandler's The Big Sleep and action superheroes like Marvel's Avenger Black Widow, starring Scarlett Johansson.

Avon Calling takes on the tropes of femininity in the 40's- the dutiful wife, gals who just want to look pretty letting their man do all the heavy lifting and thinking - and flips them on their head.

It's a blisteringly paced and stylish read that's a mix of Batman and Agent Carter - with a dash of Tarantino... If you love ruthless revenge, kick-ass action and unforgettable characters, then you'll love Hayley Camille's bestselling serialized novel.
