"Missing heiress or con-woman -- PI Grady looks for answers but finds love"

The characters in this story make up a sitcom situation filled with droll humor. Take "Toilet Paper King" eccentric Archie Peevers with his 3 dysfunctional children and their spouses; place in Peevers Manor run by the butler, Dickens and add the newly found illegitimate granddaughter, Annie Kendall.

Security Specialist [aka Private Investigator] Grady Sullivan feels he needs a scorecard to keep track of the players and their motives. All Grady knows for sure is that Annie is not what he expected and he cannot let her get hurt by Archie's Machiavellian schemes. BUT, is it only Archie who is scheming?

This is a romp on the lighter side of mystery with the romance of Annie and Grady developing as they try to find -- not who has the motive, as they all seem to have one, but who is doing more than just wishing Archie and now Annie dead. The tongue-in-cheek humor as well as plot twists build this story into one I can recommend for readers who wish to relax with a light romantic mystery.

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE published by Zebra for $6.50. Sassy Annie Kendall arrives at Peevers Manor to prove she's the long-lost granddaughter of a toilet paper tycoon, but the old man's bodyguard is breathing down her neck. Grady Sullivan has his work cut out for him. He can't let Annie out of his sight, let alone get her off of his mind. Perhaps a gloomy mansion crawling with unscrupulous and even murderous gold digging relatives isn't the perfect place to woo a woman. Original. (Courtesy of INGRAM BOOK CO.)
