Description
Book Four
Extortion, kidnapping, conspiracy, and murder—-not crimes suburban mom, biofeedback therapist, Carrie Carlin who teaches stress-reduction, should expect to run into every day. But Carrie isn’t your usual suburban mom. Over the past few years stumbling on dead bodies has become depressingly routine for her. Still, when her much adored father wins the Massachusetts lottery and his smiling face and that of his new wife, Eve, grace the front page of the Boston Globe, Carrie anticipates only good things happening.
Then Eve shows up on Carrie’s Norwood, New Jersey doorstep with a chunk of Carrie’s dad’s winnings concealed in a money belt, payoff loot for an extortionist. She begs Carrie to help her deliver the money. Outraged, Carrie adamantly refuses. The last thing she needs is to be dragged into a potentially dangerous shady deal, particularly when Eve won’t tell her what the deal is. She has a busy life, she explains--a client roster that includes ADD and ADHD kids, overeater groups, even a multiple personality, plus an ex-husband who compares her to Calamity Jane, two children, four animals and a boyfriend who’s a homicide cop.
Angry and desperate, Eve appropriates Carrie’s car and disappears, leading Carrie on a wild goose chase all over Manhattan. When the extortionist ends up with a bullet in his brain and his head in a bowl of soup, and Carrie discovers Eve trying to climb out a brownstone window, Carrie ends up in the proverbial soup right along with stepmom. Then Eve is arrested, a stepbrother Carrie didn’t know existed shows up, and strangers connected to Eve’s past begin getting murdered. When her dad arrives determined to save his lady, Carrie’s fight-or-flight response goes into orbit. Finding the killer becomes an all-consuming priority as she fights to preserve her family. Her chance comes when the killer makes a disastrous mistake....
“Golden Eggs and Other Deadly Things†is a delightful amateur sleuth tale that will send readers searching for the previous novels in the series. Carrie is an adorable heroine...â€

“If you like lovable, dysfunctional characters and a story that includes mayhem and murder, then you’ll be mad about his series.â€

“It is amateur sleuthing at its charming, endearing, laughable and surprising best.â€
