Killer Heels

Rating:
Summary: upbeat, funny and refreshing journalist tale
Review: After having dinner with one of her best friends, Molly Forrester agrees to go to her workplace, Zeitgeist magazine to show Cassady the ugliest piece of art in existence, one that The Publisher (that is always how he is referred to) has left in a prominent place. When they arrive at the office Molly steps in something wet and when Cassady turns on the lights, they find the murdered body of the advertising director Teddy Reynolds, a knife in his throat. Molly's first instinct is to call their best friend Tricia but Cassidy the lawyer calls 911.

Molly a columnist in the tradition of Dear Abby and Ann Landers sees this murder as a story that will get her a job as a serious news reporter if she investigates the case and finds the killer. Teddy had as many friends as he did enemies including a wife he cheated on and a mistress he also cheated on who happens to be Molly's boss. By the time she and her two friends finish their investigation; Molly is shot at and has become romantically involved with the lead detective on the case.

The first installment in what looks to be a winning series is upbeat, funny and totally, refreshingly original. The investigation is fascinating as Molly first follows the romance trail and in mid-stream shifts to the money motive because she comes upon a clue that the victim was doing something illegal with one of the accounts. The heroine is an original and her deep solid friendships with Cassady and Trisha ring true and feel real. Sheryl Anderson provides a fabulous opening act.

Review: For her debut novel, Ms. Anderson comes out and delivers a hit! It was a fun and suspenseful read with a good pace and a unique cast of characters. I'm a fan of Sex in the City and found the subtle similarities a hoot, but certainly not a rip-off! I anxiously await the next adventure for Molly Forrester and her friends!!

Review: The characters in this book reminded me so much of SATC!! So if you're a big fan of SATC like I am, and eager for a similar cast of characters, this is a really fun book to read. Add a murder mystery, and you get this amazingly entertaining, impossible-to-put-down book.

The beginning of this book had me a little doubtful, but after the first 40 or so pages, I was hooked--I finished reading the book in one night. I must admit, the writing style isn't too great and rather undeveloped, but that doesn't stop this book from being very fun and entertaining--after all, you're not buying this book for literary value, it's more a "just for fun" kinda book.

It reminded me of Kate White's Bailey Weggins mysteries with the same amount of romance mixed into the mystery.

Highly recommended!
