Nun Too Soon is a funny, snappy, well-paced mystery with a whodunnit that kept me guessing till the end." - Jennifer Hillier, Bestselling Author of Creep, Freak, and The Butcher "We're hooked! Entertaining characters and a twisty plot make Nun Too Soon a winner." - Sparkle Abbey, Author of the Pampered Pet Mystery Series "I love Giulia (I've always been a sucker for kick-ass nuns), and Loweecey really knows how to turn a phrase. The sense of detail is deft; the timing is exquisite, the characters are real." - James D. Macdonald, Author of The Apocalypse Door Books in the Giulia Driscoll Humorous Mystery Series: NUN TOO SOON (#1) SECOND TO NUN (#2) Fall 2015 Part of the Henery Press Mystery Series Collection, if you like one, you'll probably like them all... Author Bio: Baker of brownies and tormenter of characters, Alice Loweecey recently celebrated her thirtieth year outside the convent. She grew up watching Hammer horror films and Scooby-Doo mysteries, which explains a whole lot. When she's not creating trouble for Giulia Falcone-Driscoll, she can be found growing her own vegetables (in summer) and cooking with them (the rest of the year).

Présentation de l'éditeur

Welcome back Giulia Falcone-Driscoll, the hilariously droll and popular former-nun-turned-PI, with an ending Publishers Weekly calls “exciting and suspenseful,” you won’t want to miss this one!

Giulia Falcone-Driscoll has just taken on her first impossible client: The Silk Tie Killer. He’s hired Driscoll Investigations to prove his innocence and they have only thirteen days to accomplish it. Talk about being tried in the media. Everyone in town is sure Roger Fitch strangled his girlfriend with one of his silk neckties. And then there’s the local TMZ wannabes—The Scoop—stalking Giulia and her client for sleazy sound bites.

On top of all that, her assistant’s first baby is due any second, her scary smart admin still doesn’t relate well to humans, and her police detective husband insists her client is guilty. About this marriage thing—it’s unknown territory, but it sure beats ten years of living with 150 nuns.

Giulia’s ownership of Driscoll Investigations hasn’t changed her passion for justice from her convent years. But the more dirt she digs up, the more she’s worried her efforts will help a murderer escape. As the client accuses DI of dragging its heels on purpose, Giulia thinks The Silk Tie Killer might be choosing one of his ties for her own neck.
