Book Synopsis



Desperate Housewives meets Murder, She Wrote, in Lee Hollis's new mystery series, where a housewife and a female private eye solve murders together in their small Maine town!

Someone is trying to turn Portland High into a school for scandal with a gossipy website called Dirty Laundry. The latest target of ruinous rumors is newly elected PTA president Sandra Wallage. After a heated meeting with outraged parents, Sandra runs into fellow school mom and private investigator Maya Kendrick, who's discovered the person behind the website. But when the women storm into the venomous gossip columnist's office they find a lifeless body--along with a confession.

Although the police rule the death a suicide, Maya suspects an injured party hung the Dirty Laundry creator out to dry. Maya already has a PI partner--but she's pregnant, and sonograms and stakeouts tend to conflict. So when Sandra volunteers for a crash course in sleuthing, Maya accepts the help. But as these unlikely partners study the clues, a killer plans to teach them a lesson . . .

Great start to a new series!

This is a great start to a new series from Lee Hollis! *Content warning: lots of infidelity* A school in Portland is dealing with a scandalous website exposing everyone's secrets. Sandra's husband is accused of cheating. Maya is a private detective who was asked by her daughter to get to the bottom of who is running this website. When Sandra and Maya find the webmaster dead in her office, can they team up to find out who killed her? I enjoyed reading this book a lot. I enjoyed both Maya and Sandra as characters. I liked that they were so different but were able to become friends and work together. I liked that it was from dual perspectives. I liked seeing both Sandra's and Maya's perspectives and got glimpses into both of their lives. There was a lot that was going on and it made it a bit harder to follow. I felt like there was a storyline that was just thrown in at the end that made it a bit confusing and overcomplicated. Overall, though I loved this book and I can't wait to see what's next!
