Book News: Curse of the Spellmans by Lisa Lutz
May 20th, 2009 by Chloe
Lisa Lutz came to attention last year with her debut novel The Spellman Files which I have on my bookshelf to read at the moment. She is back this year with the follow-up to that book called Curse of the Spellmans and it looks to be another great book to add to our summer reads list. Here’s the synopsis:
“When private investigator Izzy Spellman is arrested for the fourth time in three months, she writes it off as an occupational hazard. She’s been keeping surveillance on her new next-door neighbour (suspect’s name: John Brown), convinced he’s up to no good - even if Spellman Investigations management (Izzy’s parents) disagree. When the displeased management refuse to bail her out, it’s Morty, Izzy’s octogenarian lawyer, who comes to her rescue. But before he can build a defence, he has to know the facts. Over weak coffee and pastrami sandwiches, Izzy unveils the whole truth and nothing but the truth - as only she, a licensed 30-year-old professional, can. ”
It looks like a funny book, and is published on 3rd August 2009 so look out for it in the shops then!
