Bad, Bad Seymour Brown by Susan Isaacs
Former FBI agent Corie Geller and her retired cop dad must solve one of the NYPD's coldest homicide cases - before the crime's sole survivor is killed.
Both witty and gripping, this is ultra-sleek storytelling, with two delightful investigators' * Daily Mail *
The thoroughly enjoyable plot brims with misdirection and red herrings. And like other Isaacs characters, Corie Geller is wonderful company for the reader * New York Times *
As a narrator, [Corie] herself is a formidable raconteur, as generous with details as Proust, as full of anecdote as a suburban Scheherazade * Wall Street Journal *
Offbeat characters, witty narration and a winsome father-daughter dynamic complement Isaacs's clever if madcap plot. Fans of breezy suspense will be delighted * Publishers Weekly *
I can think of no other novelist - popular or highbrow - who consistently celebrates female gutsiness, brains and sexuality. She's Jane Austen with a schmear. * NPR Fresh Air *
Nobody does smart, gutsy, funny, sexy women better than Susan Isaacs. * Washington Post *
What is it that makes Susan Isaacs' books so delicious to read? She's funny, for starters. And that humour combined with romance and old-fashioned murder mystery tickles every feel-good bone in our bodies. Her characters are whole and flawed and lovable, and you want only the best for them, even as you ardently wish to find them in danger - repeatedly - along the way. * Newsday *
