Kenora Reinvented
There is no roadmap for starting over. Her mother's sudden death was the first crack in Kenora's Tedesco's world. When her philandering husband dumped her, her predictable suburban life was upended. Things went from bad to worse when she was fired for insubordination. An empty nester, she's stuck with a rusting sedan, dwindling savings and a lakefront fixer-upper in the country. When an eleventh-hour interview lands her a job as a private investigator, Kenora figures that's the end of her troubles.
Sparks fly during her first interview with Jake Barclay--her boss. He's the handsome, fifty-something CEO of Barclay, Benford & Friday, a risk management company staffed by lawyers, former police officers and other crime-fighting specialists. Kenora's mentor, Bosco Poon, is her champion when the going gets tough, but he has little patience with her careless errors or insecurities. Kenora, the smart, passionate female lead in this contemporary mystery and seasoned romance novel is 42 years old.
Sure, she knits, knows her way around an Instant Pot and practices Tai Chi, but she's a licensed professional, not an amateur sleuth or hard-boiled operative. A feisty rookie in a predominantly masculine world, Kenora is resilient and committed to her new career. Instead of a snazzy wardrobe and movie-inspired intrigue, though, danger threatens to derail her new career and a second-chance romance.
Her intertwined investigations lead to her being trapped in a storage locker by a lovesick embezzler, caught up in an international fraud case, and declared dead by a drugstore pharmacist. She is a quick learner who, through trial and error, learns what she must do to win: play by company rules, ditch the fear, learn to trust again and don't look back. The action is set in and around Toronto, Ontario. Kenora Reinvented is a fast-paced coming of middle-age novel featuring investigations, mystery and second-chance romance.
This suspenseful page-turner showcases a diverse cast of strong female and male protagonists working through life, career and relationship issues. The supporting characters are villainous, quirky or just plain out-to-lunch. With witty dialogue, plot twists and turns and hooks in every chapter's opening and closing scenes, this intelligent contemporary novel propels readers into a binge-worthy whodunit that will keep them engaged until the last page. Kenora Reinvented is an ideal book club selection.
