Deadly Gamble (Mojo Sheepshanks)
Mojo Sheepshanks wakes up to find her dead ex-husband next to her in bed in her apartment above Bert's Bad-Ass Biker Saloon, the latest strange moment in a curious life. Mojo grew up on the run with Lillian, her babysitter, after her parents were gunned down in their trailer. She has two so-called sisters, Greer, a former teen hooker who is now a prominent doctor's trophy wife who hires her to check up on her husband, and Jolie, an African American forensic scientist. And Mojo's undercover-cop boyfriend looks like a bad-boy biker. Miller is fabulous at capturing relationships on the page, not only the fire between Mojo and Tucker but also the caring between the three women who became sisters through Lillian's love. Readers will by entranced by Mojo, a quirky detective who sees dead people and is ready to hang out her shingle as a PI. The star of Miller's series debut possesses the appeal of both Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum and Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse rolled up in one.Diana Tixier HeraldCopyright © American Library Association.
