Some Like It Lethal - Martin, Nancy

. .

Résumé :
In this updated version of the Blackbird Sisters Mysteries, falling hard for a magnetically attractive mobster might sound ill-advised for Philadelphia blue blood Nora Blackbird, but what else can go wrong for a girl after her parents run off with her trust fund and her toxic boss would like nothing better than Nora's pretty head on a platter? To make matters worse, Nora's attendance at an exclusive hunt club means she's sipping champagne with the horse fanciers when the seemingly wealthy husband of a dog food heiress is found bludgeoned by a polo mallet. The prime suspect is Nora's sister Emma, a well-known expert in horsemanship, handsome men, and-truth be told-hard drinking. To protect her little sis, Nora uncovers an aristocratic blackmail plot that reveals some inconvenient secrets among high society's high-and-mighty. The quips fly faster than a Grand Prix show jumper, and Nora's having a very hard time not falling hard for the irresistible Mick Abruzzo. It's mystery, mayhem, not to mention hot men abounding in Nora's latest misadventure. Hilarious repartee and zany characters. --Library Journal...
