There are times when a satisfying lie is better than the awful truth. Meet Shelby Nichols, mind reader extraordinaire. Working for a mob boss, helping the police expose a violent drug ring, and running her own consulting agency can get complicated, especially considering she has a husband and two kids. Keeping her mind reading skills a secret is even harder, and involves telling lies that can get her into more trouble she likes to admit. Then there's Ramos, a hitman with a past who comes knocking at her door with troubles of his own. Of course, facing death has a way of putting things into perspective, if only she can stay alive long enough to appreciate it... USA TODAY and Wall Street Journal Bestselling author Colleen Helme offers a clever mix of mystery, laugh-out-loud humor, and page-turning adventure in the highly acclaimed Shelby Nichols Adventure Series. ***** Laced in Lies is great light reading. Some of the situations she gets into have me laughing out loud. One of my favorite mystery series. It just keeps getting better.
