Where the Hell is Myra Atkins?
A fun, fast-paced read about friendship,
new beginnings . . . and murder
When Myra Atkins, a life-hardened, aging vamp of a detective, goes missing, her secretary, proper English import Esther Humperstone, enlists Henry, an earnest yet slightly off-center twenty-two-year-old, to help find her beloved boss.
What Henry and Esther don't know is that while they're taking a crash course in private detecting, Myra, caught up in a mid-life melt-down, has actually escaped to Maui with smooth-talker Ray Garnetti for a little sun and romance--and a lot of vodka martinis.
The stakes are raised when prominent Sacramento businessman Gordon Winston, apparently the last person Myra saw before her disappearance, turns up dead. Henry and Esther's quest to find their boss will have them not only rubbing elbows with the city's elite, but with Central California's most feared crime lord.
In the process of seeking answers to their boss's disappearance, Esther and Henry will unwittingly solve the mystery of who murdered Gordon Winston, take giants steps outside of their respective comfort zones, and discover that life's a richer journey when you're in good company.
