[Sophie Katz Murder Mystery 01] • Sexe, Meurtres Et Cappuccino

**When a mystery writer cries bloody murder, everyone blames her overactive

imagination . . .**

Thriller scribe Sophie Katz is as hard-boiled as a woman who drinks Grande

Caramel Brownie Frappuccinos can be. So Sophie knows it's not paranoia or

post-divorce, living-alone-again jitters, when she becomes convinced that a

crazed reader is sneaking into her apartment to reenact scenes from her books.

The police, however, can't tell a good plot from an unmarked grave.

When a filmmaker friend is brutally murdered in the manner of a death scene in

one of his movies, Sophie becomes convinced that a copycat killer is on the

loose--and that she's the next target. If she doesn't solve the mystery, her

own bestseller will spell out her doom. Cursing her grisly imagination (why,

oh, why did she have to pick the ax?), Sophie engages in some real-life

gumshoe tactics. The man who swoops in to save her in dark alleys is

mysterious new love interest Anatoly Darinsky. Of course, if this were

fiction, Anatoly would be her prime suspect....
