Cut the Blue by Aoife Sheridan
When Floss McFarland ditches her secure and lucrative actuarial job to set up Cut the Blue Investigations, her friends and family think she's lost the plot. And two years into a less than glamorous career chasing corporate fraudsters, cheating husbands and wayward pets, she's starting to see their point. But Floss is determined to turn CTB's luck around and things are finally starting to look up . An old insider trading job, lost a year ago, suddenly resurfaces. And like Dublin buses, good gigs come in twos and a second more challenging job falls in her lap. A young Russian girl approaches with a desperate plea to find her best friend Anna, missing, feared kidnapped or worse in Dublin. Fired up and determined not to fail, Floss and loyal sidekick Penny Firth soon uncover a sinister human trafficking ring at the heart of the city's underbelly. More ruthless and vicious than any white-collar weasel they've faced, the girls reluctantly bring in the reinforcements . From stage left, the mysterious Tash, Lithuania's answer to Lara Croft. And stage right? Seasoned and sizzling Milo McCarthy, ex-special branch, turned Private Eye. Floss needs a mind-melting love triangle like she needs a full bodied perm, but that's exactly what she's got. Will she pick Tash and dabble in 'the dark side'? Or will she fall for Milo's bad-boy charm? But most important of all, will she find Anna before it's too late?

Aoife Sheridan has been writing for nearly thirty years, sadly mostly in her head. But the reading public need wait no more! Cut the Blue is the first story that has gone the distance, from light bulb moment to ink on paper. Born in Dublin, she enjoys writing quirky, character-based fiction, interwoven into the fabric of Ireland's capital city. Her mission as a writer is twofold: First and foremost to entertain. She guarantees her books will give the reader at least one giggle and will definitely not hurt their heads. Secondly, she is determined to help the people of the world pronounce the name 'Aoife' correctly. It's 'Eefa' if you're interested. She lives on Dublin's north side with her partner and two giant, alas imaginary dogs.
