Murder. Suspense. Romance. And some handy gardening tips. IN BOOK 10 OF THE HOUSEWIFE ASSASSIN SERIES:Housewife assassin Donna Stone's green thumb-and for that matter, her trigger finger-is put to the test when she must stop the release of genetically enhanced corn containing a deadly brain-eating virus. If you like pulp thrillers filled with satire and dark comedy starring hardboiled women sleuths mixed up in international crime and mystery, you will love the Housewife Assassin romantic mystery series. PRAISE FOR THE HOUSEWIFE ASSASSIN SERIES "The last book that made me laugh: Josie Brown's The Housewife Assassin's Handbook. I taught it in a class about comic novels." -Jane Smiley, Pulitzer Prize-winning author, A Thousand Acres "The Housewife Assassin's Handbook is a hilarious, laugh-out-loud read.
Donna is a fantastic character - practical, witty, and kick-ass tough. There's plenty of action - both in and out of the bedroom - and although there are a few grittier scenes, generally this is a light, humourous caper of a crime novel. I especially love the housekeeping tips at the start of each chapter - each with its own deadly twist! I can't wait to read the next in the series. Highly Recommended." -Stephanie Broadribb's Crime Thriller Girl blog "On many days, I'll join deep discussions about the works of Le Carré, Deighton, Greene, Ambler, and Forsyth.
And then I take incredible delight in a series like The Housewife Assassin. Just the name would likely cause eyebrows to be raised, and my stature as an 'expert' falls a bit. Too bad! The authors mentioned above all entertained the heck out of me. And so does Josie Brown's wonderfully fun and amusing Donna Stone. I take a lot of delight from the series. I hope you do as well because I want more adventures." -Randall Masteller, Spy Guys + Gals
