"What are a newly and wildly rich couple to do? Why not start the T&A Detective Agency? They are handed their first case when Loretta Coates, a librarian friend of Allie's, asks Allie to find her boyfriend, Lloyd Bunker, who has vanished without a trace, as has his classic 1967 GTO. As Allie and Tom investigate, they discover that Lloyd's disappearance is connected to a web of other misdeeds that could spell trouble for themselves."--Publishers Weekly "This new series is engrossing, well thought-out, and just plain fun. Hooray!"--reviewingtheevidence "The bittersweet mystery, with the open-ended threat of a villainous mastermind, is reminiscent of P.J. Tracy's early 'Monkeewrench' novels."--Lesa Holstine "Library Journal " "In this entertaining, sexy debut, Allie is a sharp Stephanie Plum paired up with a hot partner. She quickly learns how adept a blind man can be in dealing with trouble. The original voice, humor, and unusual premise will appeal to Janet Evanovich readers."--Library Journal starred review of Too Lucky to Live
