Book excerpt: When two hot, haute heroines team up to solve a murder, neither can afford to be fashionably late. No one expected to find a dead girl in the Royal Suite at the Babylon’s posh London club. Who would kill her? And why? With little to go on and no friends to rely on, Lucky O’Toole, the Babylon’s Chief Problem Solver, is dispatched to…well, to solve the problem. But she needs to be in Paris. Her fiancé—and, worse, his mother—are counting on her presence at a party in her honor in seventy-two hours, more or less. With a personal-life time-bomb ticking, Lucky hopes for a quick solution. A mystery woman, seen leaving the Royal Suite just before the girl’s body is discovered, attracts Lucky’s attention. She has to be the key… On loan to the CIA, assassin Donna Stone Craig and her crack black-ops team have stepped into a viper’s nest. First, they darn near get out-bid and overwhelmed at an auction to acquire a vintage purse hiding some critical intel its lining. Then a very important source Donna is to meet at the Babylon London Club winds up dead. And the young woman’s intel—bearing incredible global consequences—is encrypted. She was the only one who could give Donna the cipher, and she’s dead. Surely someone else would know. But, who? It’s easy to see why Acme’s prime suspect is the tall brunette who acts like she owns the place. Lucky O’Toole shows up at the wrong time, and in the wrong place. But before Donna and Lucky can find the right answers, they must overcome their reservations and resolve their differences. But can they learn to trust each other before the real killer gets away? They have to. Their lives—and world peace—depend on it.

If you have not read both authors you will feel comfortable as the they have provided enough backstory that you will not feel lost. The writing…the characters…great read! " “Perfect marriage of two great series. A funny murder mystery with a political side, a helping of rom-com and a relatable mom-com. The two authors combine all these elements and the two sets of characters seamlessly and still continue to develop the characters. I couldn't put it down. Two sassy leading ladies (winging it on the best way) for the price of one!" "Donna and Lucky in the same book?! How can that possibly work? Well not only does it work it's more than I could have expected. The way the characters POV never interrupted the story and it never felt disjointed, you can tell this was a labor of love for both authors. Well done!! Or as the Brits say bloody good job!: "What a great book. I have read all of the Lucky books but this was my first exposure to the Housewife Assassin. I was so impressed with the writing of Josie Brown that I purchased the first five series of the book. Plan to get them all. Could not put the book down. So much action. Could not wait for Lucky and Donna to meet. Hope these two authors collaborate on another book soon." "A brilliant collaboration! These two plucky, powerful women are thrown into each other’s paths and an exciting time is to be had. I can see these characters coming together again!"

Download or read book American Taboo written by Philip Weiss and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975, a new group of Peace Corps volunteers landed on the island nation of Tonga. Among them was Deborah Gardner -- a beautiful twenty-three-year-old who, in the following year, would be stabbed twenty-two times and left for dead inside her hut. Another volunteer turned himself in to the Tongan police, and many of the other Americans were sure he had committed the crime. But with the aid of the State Department, he returned home a free man. Although the story was kept quiet in the United States, Deb Gardner's death and the outlandish aftermath took on legendary proportions in Tonga. Now journalist Philip Weiss "shines daylight on the facts of this ugly case with the fervor of an avenging angel" (Chicago Tribune), exposing a gripping tale of love, violence, and clashing ideals. With bravura reporting and vivid, novelistic prose, Weiss transforms a Polynesian legend into a singular artifact of American history and a profoundly moving human story.
