Nineteen-year-old trans woman Eliza is missing . . . and her worried father sets private investigators Fran and Ken Stein on her trail in this second instalment of the light-hearted and fun cozy mystery series with a paranormal twist.

Taking a break from their usual business of helping adoptees find their birth parents, New York private investigators - and super-sized, ever-so-slightly-paranormal siblings - Fran and Ken Stein accept a job to find a missing young woman.

Nineteen-year-old college student Eliza Hennessey is trans - and she has a rocky relationship with her father, their new client. Brian's convinced his daughter's vanished, rather than run away, but Fran and Ken aren't so sure she wants to be found.

The PI duo investigate, and soon Fran is butting heads with her irritating sort-of-ex-boyfriend Mank at the NYPD, who has what seems to be a similar case on his desk. But not even Fran could guess how tangled their investigations are going to get, and how deep they'll need to dive into murder and mayhem to solve the case!

The new instalment of the Fran and Ken Stein mystery series, following Ukulele of Death, has it all: unique characters, witty humour and a twisty mystery plot to die for!

It's Fran's resilience, intelligence, and - most of all - her irrepressible, sassy, laugh-out-loud humor that make this book so entertaining * Booklist *
A hilarious quest * Kirkus Reviews *
A terrific read * Dru's Book Musings *
A wonderful, complicated and funny mystery, which might remind the reader of Donald Westlake at his best * Aunt Agatha's *

With unique, larger-than-life characters (literally), and an outlandish premise, this one
may appeal to Janet Evanovich fans
