JANET EVANOVICH calls Midnight Louie "the funniest, hairiest, hard-boiled detective on the planet."
Petite PR powerhouse Temple Barr fights mysterious saboteurs whose "pranks" threaten her life when she supervises a redo of the Crystal Phoenix hotel-casino as a "family friendly" venue. Temple must contend with the local police, FBI agents, obnoxious reporters and a posse of semi-reformed Mafiosi wearing pastel zoot suits. And then there's the two attractive men in her life . . . . Luckily, alley cat P.I. Midnight Louie unsheaths his shivs to help his new detecting roommate expose the foul play at work.
