Three Grande Dames of the publishing industry join three teen boys in a chaotic romp to solve multiple murders in 2038 Saratoga and New York City.
In summer 2038, Angie Summers, the best-selling author of sexy Literary Mystery Thrillers, often plays amateur detective. Nothing new about that-Miss Marple, Angela Lansbury, Nancy Drew, Velma Dinkley, and Charlie's Angels got there first.
Angie drives a Maserati Hydro and wields a secret weapon, NYPD Inspector Rex Caine, who wants to marry her and often extracts her from dangerous situations. When an assassin wounds Rex at Belmont Park, he falls into a coma, awakens with amnesia, and enters a fugue state in which he no longer knows which side he is on.
Angie believes herself left with only her two best friends to help solve a series of murders related to Rex's plan to capture a group of international drug dealers meeting in Saratoga, NY. She does not reckon on her son, fourteen-year-old Dale, and his two Chinese immigrant friends deciding to take Rex's place and assist her.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the first book in the The Jimmu Files series, featuring a tornado of emotions, dangers, and humor by the multiple-award-winning author of the NorthWatch series.
The fast-paced plot, filled with twists, humor, and danger aplenty, keeps readers on the edge of their seats in a way that's perfectly pitched for both YA and adult readers, and it demonstrates Magee's true mastery of tension and storytelling. Readers' Favorite Book Reviews, K.C. Finn (5 STARS)
