Críticas:
"The author does a fine job of setting up the murder scene and then demonstrating how just about every other character in the book, from the former Toppettes to the mysterious private investigator who always seems to show up in unexpected places, would have had a possible motive. There are many surprises included to deepen the plot and to keep the reader guessing . Timestep to Murder is definitely a book that will appeal to women. It has an interesting plot, intriguing characters, and an ample amount of drama. The story moves at a good pace and provides the reader with an entertaining experience." -Leslie Granier for Reader Views"

DEADLY SHUFFLE starts out slowly, but stick with it; the pace picks up. I RECOMMEND this fun, energetic, chick-lit mystery that keeps you enthralled and guessing. It features a seventy-ish show-biz mother and several of her past beaux, any one of whom might be fifty-ish daughter Abby's father, and Abby's new boyfriend, private eye Blade Garret, whose mother was a figure skater -- hence the unusual first name. There is romance, murder, several family secrets, mob connections and a possible half-brother of Abby's. You know, the usual family drama.
The story heats up when a poker game among friends turns deadly. Abby's mother accuses the other men of killing Dr. Thomas Levine, then disappears leaving her unlocked car with a wad of cash and a portfolio of important papers on the seat. Not satisfied with the lack of progress being made by the sheriff and her PI love interest in solving the death and finding her missing mother, Abby takes matters into her own hands. She performs a little B&E at the scene of the crime, questions each of the poker players and both her aunts and generally stirs up a hornet's nest of old relationships in her mother's past which could get them both killed.
This is the second book in the Abby Rollins Mystery series that began with TIMESTEP TO MURDER.

Reseña del editor:
Trish Malone is a member of the Malone Sisters' singing trio, which rose to fame in the '60s. She is also the mother of Abby Rollins, a retired dancer and owner of Starduds, a flourishing dance supply business. When Trish's sister Ginny drops out of the Palm Springs Follies because of hip surgery, Trish wants to take her place, but first she must learn some basic dance moves. Abby gives her a few lessons, and her mother is hired. Abby's new beau, private eye Blade Garret, wants to whisk her away for a romantic weekend. What better destination than Palm Springs, where Abby can also visit her aunt Ginny and see her mother perform? Upon their arrival, things get complicated. First an old flame of her mother's keels over dead during a poker game attended by several other men from Trish's past. Then Trish vanishes, leaving an unlocked car and a briefcase full of papers from her real estate business. Dr. Thomas Levine, a plastic surgeon, was poisoned. Did Trish kill him? Is she hiding from the killer? Or is she dead, too-silenced to prevent her from revealing a terrible truth in her memoirs? Abby is determined to find out. Trish Malone spent much of Abby's childhood on the road, leaving many questions unanswered. Now Abby must fill in the blanks in time to save her mother's life without losing her own. Deadly Shuffle is the second book in the Abby Rollins Mystery Series, which began with Timestep to Murder.
