Death by Killer Mop Doll

Death By Killer Mop Doll
Lois Winston
Llewellyn Worldwide, 2012
312 pages

Anastasia Pollack is having a rough, well, life. Raising two teenage sons alone would be enough without the constant pressure of having both her mother and her mother-in-law live with her - plus a Shakespeare-spouting parrot, and a militant dog. The mothers hate each other, Anastasia's dead husband has left them massively in debt, and her poor-paying job has now piled on a tv show spot with no extra pay. Not to mention the dead body on set - impaled by one on Anastasia's Mop Dolls! No stranger to murders (see her first mystery in Assault with a Deadly Glue Gun), Anastasia's snooping soon lands her into even more trouble, and in the crosshairs of the killer!

Anastasia is a typical North American mom – just trying to hang in there like the rest of us. With a little bit of romance, a dose of who-done-it and a giant pile of hilarity, Winston’s mystery novels are fun and entertaining – perfect for a girl’s night off or lying on a beach! Fans of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series will be sure to enjoy the exploits of Anastasia Pollack!
