Mosaic Mayhem — Lois Winston
The second novella to the critically acclaimed Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mystery series.
So much for a romantic getaway...When cash-strapped mom and reluctant amateur sleuth Anastasia Pollack is offered an all-expense paid three-day trip to Barcelona, her only worries are whether her passport is still valid and arranging care for her semi-invalid mother-in-law during her absence. However, within hours of landing in Europe, she finds herself staring down the barrel of a gun and needing to convince a Spanish crime syndicate they've got the wrong person. Why do people on both sides of the Atlantic keep trying to kill this pear-shaped, middle-aged single mom, and magazine crafts editor?
“Anastasia is as deadpan droll as Tina Fey's Liz Lemon, and readers can't help cheering as she copes with caring for a host of colorful characters.”"Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Oddball characters, uproariously funny situations, and a heroine with a strong sense of irony will delight fans of Janet Evanovich...”"Booklist (starred review)
“North Jersey's more mature answer to Stephanie Plum.”"Kirkus Reviews
