Absolute Zero - Lashley, Margaret

. .

Résumé :
A Midlife Meltdown ... with a Side of Fries. Val's long-suffering life as a patient daughter, dutiful wife and reliable workhorse has turned her into a snarky, miserable nag. She has the house, the husband and the career. The only thing missing is the happy. Before she's set out to pasture, Val wants one more go around the track. Unbridled. In Italy. La dolce vita or bust. Will Val find her happy ending abroad? Or someplace she never thought to look? And will she get there before her money (and her sense of humor) run out ... Absolute Zero is a satirical look at starting life over through the eyes of a sharp-witted, reluctantly redneck woman who's always played it safe - until now. Freedom comes at a price. Will it be worth it in the end? If you like deeply flawed characters and laugh-out-loud situations, you'll love Absolute Zero. It's the prequel to Margaret Lashley's hilarious Val Fremden Mystery Series....
