Review: The Big Brush-off: A Jake & Laura Mystery

The Big Brush-off: A Jake & Laura Mystery by Michael Murphy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is such a good read!
It has all of the elements I like: a lovely and beautiful detective couple, a good murder, interesting characters and lots of glamour. And to top it off, there's the name dropping. Joan Crawford, Clark Gable or Dashiell Hammett, anyone?

Book 4 in the Jake and Laura series, set in the dazzling 30's, the book tells the story of Jake, a writer who is in a slump while his actor wife Laura is on her way to the top.

When an old cold case returns to haunt Jake's life, they embark on a second honeymoon that will double as a writing retreat and a chance to solve the murder of a young girl.

Fun, light (but in a good way, of course) I now have the 3 first books of the series on my reading list, and I'm waiting for the 5th one.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
