THIS BOOK!!!

Okay, imagine the movie "Calendar Girls", crossed with "The Bourne Identity", and you basically have "Killers of a Certain Age".
This was hysterical, and more than a little suspense filled, all while making some very accurate points about the way society views women, but ESPECIALLY women of a "certain age".
I'd never read Deanna Raybourn before, but I'll absolutely be checking out more!
