Mention of being drugged and sexual assault, not in heavy detail.

3.5

I really liked the overall story. It was clever and funny in a “single mom gets mixed up with the mob” kind of way. However, I just could not get over how frequently the main character made the worst decisions. Every chapter. I both wanted to be done with the book and had to take long breaks because I found the main character so frustrating. But I give it 3.5 stars because the overall story was enjoyable.

Fun mystery with vibes of murder she wrote.  The sheer dumb luck is unbelievable but a ton a fun.  Its a quick read and would be great beach read or readathon book.  I loved the witty banter and the interactions between Finlay and the bartender and Finlay and Vero.
