My mind boggles when I think of shoes that cost almost $800 a pair. It would boggle my mind even more if I found myself in the same pickle as Ruby does in this story: losing one shoe from a $800 pair, and made even worse by the fact that they were on loan from my boss.With her job in jeopardy, Ruby and her sister Laura go on the hunt for the missing red, over-priced shoe. The craziness that ensues while the sisters traipse all over Manhattan and Brooklyn backtracking Ruby's steps of the previous night and early morning is a madcap comedy of strange people and even stranger places. Will they find the shoe in time for work on Monday morning? And if they do find it, will it be in a condition that will conceal its travels around New York City?Recommended for anyone looking for a good laugh or a quick mystery where nobody dies.
