Book Overview
It was a hell of a long shot....CIA assassin Fortune Redding is about to undertake her most difficult mission ever-in Sinful, Louisiana. With a leak at the CIA and a price placed on her head by one of the world's largest arms dealers, Fortune has to go off-grid, but she never expected to be this far out of her element. Posing as a former beauty queen turned librarian in a small bayou town seems worse than death to Fortune, but she's determined to fly below the radar until her boss finds the leak and puts the arms dealer out of play.Unfortunately, she hasn't even unpacked a suitcase before her newly inherited dog digs up a human bone in her backyard. Thrust into the middle of a bayou murder mystery, Fortune teams up with a couple of seemingly sweet old ladies whose looks completely belie their hold on the little town. To top things off, the handsome local deputy is asking her too many questions. If she's not careful, this investigation might blow her cover and get her killed.Armed with her considerable skills and a group of elderly ladies the locals dub The Geritol Mafia, Fortune has no choice but to solve the murder before it's too late."Southern wit at its best " - NYT Bestselling author Gemma Halliday"Sinfully funny " - NYT Bestselling author CC Hunter/Christie Craig

NOT a boring, predictable, everyday mystery!
Published by Kellee , 7 months ago
I have read A LOT of mysteries in 45 years. This book stands out of the pack for me.
This was written very well. There were multiple mysteries, the humor was well executed (not cheesy), the characters were engaging, and the story was well paced with NO "wasted space" (what I call pages and pages that do not serve to progress the story, that are boring, and only increase a book's page count).
The author hooked me right away and kept me fully engaged and entertained until the end.
When I finished the book, I immediately ordered the next in the series. I can't wait to get back to Sinful, LA for Fortune and the girls' next adventure.
Pleasant Surprise

Louisiana Longshot is a fast read, there are some assuming sections of this book, and it did take me a little bit to figure out end. It is because of these three triggers of thought that I will most likely read some of the other books in this series.
